Gmail read receipt setup guide

Use this checklist to get your first tracked Gmail message working quickly and avoid the most common setup mistakes.

Setup checklist

Install the add-on, grant the requested permissions, send one test email to a controlled inbox, open it, and confirm the result appears in your tracking history.

Best practice

Before using tracking in high-stakes outreach, run one or two internal tests so your team understands what the open signal looks like in practice.
