Simple and easy
TechieNicoleMay 6, 2011
Pros
Very Simple, sets up in seconds.
Cons
Limited to only one account at a time, so a little too simple for me.
Summary
Great for basic users, but a more advanced individual may want to look elsewhere.
Good little app

Pros
You can enable notification for gmail and google calenders. You can also tweak other settings such as the noise it makes to warn you of any notifications.
Cons
None I can think off.

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />What an elegant and efficient solution to the problem of having to log into Gmail just to see if there are new messages. This is especially convenient if you don't wish to have your Gmail automatically forwarded to your mail application for a variety of reasons. I'm looking forward to a future version which will have two additional features: 1) monitor multiple Gmail addresses. 2) Customize the pop up notification to show just the sender's address and (with the aforementioned feature implemented) from which account the new mail has been detected. Well done! [OS X 10.4.11 on 1.33 GHz PowerBook (PowerPC) G4; 1 GB SDRAM.]
Works fine with OS X 10.5.4

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I've used this program since it's been available. Occasionally it will ask me to log in, but not enough to be annoying. It's probably the program that gets the most use on my Mac, since I check it's menu bar icon every time I start any activity.

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />This is a really handy little application. I would request a couple improvements. First, when I respond to an email, my response appears as a new email. That is, I'm notified when I just sent an email. I don't need that notification, and I'd like the option to turn it off. Second, and I guess this is a general Gmail issue, when I read an email in Entourage and it is marked "read," it's still marked "unread" in Gmail and in the notifier. I'd like Gmail to recognize when Entourage (or any mail reader) reads a message and marks it read.

constantly stops working

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />i don't get it. many times a day now it just simply stops working. Sure the menu bar is active and the submenu appears, but when I click on any of the menu items to open Gmail NOTHING HAPPENS. Select "Go to Inbox": NOTHING HAPPENS. Select "Compose Email": NOTHING HAPPENS. Select one of the unread messages... you get the picture. I have to quit Google Notifier and relaunch it several times a day. Is it a Firefox issue? I'm running 2.0.0.3. The odd thing is that it works SOMETIMES, so I'm wondering what all of a sudden stops it from working?
Now works with Google Hosted Accounts!

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com.<br />I switched from regular Gmail to email hosted by Google Apps for Your Domain a while back and lost the use of Google Notifier. On a whim, I tried the new version and checking Google Hosted Accounts now works. Sweet.
