### 3/5 — neue UI nicht so gut

*2026-02-19, version 9718*

Ich finde die heute veröffentlichte UI nicht so gut. Die am häufigsten von mir genutzte Funktion ist der Tab "Aktivitäten", welcher bislang als Startbildschirm geöffnet wurde und nun an letzter Stelle mehrerer Tabs gerückt ist. Nun muss ich also bei jedem Öffnen der App zunächst den Tab "Aktivitäten" auswählen. Es wäre schöner, wenn ich den "Home-Tab" irgendwo einstellen könnte.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2024-07-28, version 7725*

Whilst it works fine on laptop, it will not work on iOS Google Mail. Support is useless.

### 1/5 — Notification ne fonctionne pas

*2024-04-15, version 6709*

Malheureusement les notifications de lecture ne fonctionne pas sur iPhone. Autant sur Mac aucun problème autant là, même pas un son ou une pastille. Ça doit être un bug et j’ai hâte qu’il y ai un correctif.

### 2/5 — So many features missing

*2024-03-06, version 6709*

Like how does this not have split screen functionality. I love mailbutler on my Mac but this App leaves so much to be desired its kinda insane. It does not enhance my iPad email experience at all.

### 2/5 — Only shows SENT EMAIL. Can’t set reminders to incoming mail.

*2024-02-19, version 6709*

Extremely limited. 

Only shows SENT EMAIL. Can’t set reminders to incoming mail.

### 1/5 — 🫣no way 😤

*2023-11-17, version 6709*

In what what we are century ?
Everything is possible from mobile phone. But this app, you have to sign up thru computer and then you can use app. 

Sorry but useless app for me. I dont have computer

### 4/5 — So far so good

*2023-04-05, version Changed description*

I like that I can get notifications on my phone when emails are opened and can track progress while on the go. The bad habit I’ve now developed is that I avoid sending emails on my phone because I know they won’t get tracked and wait till I’m at the desktop to finally send them. Hopefully there will be more integration on the iOS side soon

### 1/5 — Auf Desktop?

*2023-02-05, version Changed description*

Bereits vor drei Jahren schrieb ein User namens uukrae, dass man nach der Installation direkt als erstes aufgefordert wird, Mailbutler auf dem Desktop zu installieren, bevor man die Mobile App nutzen könne.

Der Entwickler antwortete (ebenfalls vor drei Jahren), dass man bereits an der Verbesserung der App arbeiten würde, und versuche, die App kompatibel mit iPad zu machen.

Es scheint nichts passiert zu sein seitdem. Da ich ausschließlich ein iPad und ein iPhone benutze, ist die App nutzlos für mich und ich werde nun diese App auch wieder löschen - so, wie es uukrae schon drei Jahre zuvor tat.

### 2/5 — Problem beim senden an mehrere Personen

*2023-01-24, version Changed description*

Leider gibt es immer wieder ein Problem, wenn man eine E-Mail mit Mailbutler an verschiedene Personen gleichzeitig verschickt. Das wird dann oft angezeigt, dass die E-Mail nicht versendet werden konnte (- der Ausgangs-Server erkennt die eigene E-Mail Adresse nicht ) aber 99% der Teilnehmer kriegen dann trotzdem eine E-Mail - und „vermutlich“ eine Person nicht. Da man natürlich nicht weiß, wer die E-Mail nicht bekommen hat, schickt man das dann noch ein weiteres Mal und plötzlich haben die Teilnehmer die E-Mail zehn mal bekommen (auch wenn man diesen Vorgang nicht zehnmal getätigt hat). Das Problem besteht schon länger und ist für mich tatsächlich ein Grund auf Mailbutler zu verzichten.. sehr schade)

### 1/5 — MacBook Pro great iOS not so …

*2022-10-19, version Changed description*

I was asked about Mailbutler to see if it would work for me. I just need basic email tracking. Put this on my MacBook Pro and was impressed. It seemed to do what it says on the tin. I was then introduced to the iOS and iPadOS versions. Totally different experience. It does not do anything. Almost 75% of my email comes from either my iPhone or my iPad. Mailbutler does nothing. It cannot see emails to which I reply, send or in fact anything. Whether or not it would do anything under the full pad version is highly suspect as the basics that are included in all subscriptions simply does not work on iOS or iPadOS devices. All-in-all a great disappointment.

### 4/5 — It’s great, tho needs more iOS integration

*2022-02-21, version 4908*

It’s an amazing tool, but I work mostly from my iOS devices, iPhone and iPad also but not as often from my Mac so it would be great to have at least a mail client app where you were be able to compose emails from rather than just analytics of your emails sent from MacOS.
The app on MacOS is great and works flawlessly hence why I give it 4 stars.

### 4/5 — Super app

*2022-01-25, version 4609*

Tolle app die mir wirklich das leben einfach macht. 
Das einzige Manko welches ich sehe ist, dass ich sie leider nicht auf meinem IPad Pro nutzen kann.

### 2/5 — Just a fancy log

*2021-11-25, version 4609*

This app does nothing but show your log. I can also see this on the desktop. No integration with the mail client whatsoever. You can’t send mails through iOS for example using iPad for work and sending mails through wont get tracked and this is a huge bummer. Your simple answer is going to be apple does not allow for extension's. What about safari extension?

### 3/5 — Notifications HS

*2021-10-15, version 4428*

Depuis quelques jours je ne reçois plus les notifications sur cette appli. 

Les notifications mailbuttler sont pourtant activées sur mon téléphone …

Sur mon mac par contre je les reçois bien. 

Je précise que j’ai un compte premium. 

Vite une mise à jour svp.

### 2/5 — Poor

*2021-10-13, version 4428*

This app is so unresponsive. Whatever I tap, it doesn’t open.
Every time I open it, it asks to log in. Annoying.

### 1/5 — Useless

*2021-09-14, version 4317*

I’m honestly not sure what the point of this app is. It doesn’t allow you to schedule or even send emails at all, and the email tab shows a random incomplete assortment (maybe 10%) of actual emails I can see in my Apple mail app. I was really hoping it would let me schedule emails from my phone the way the desktop app does, but it doesn’t. The tasks tab doesn’t show the tasks I set up on my desktop. I guess if you care about read receipts it does seem to do that, but that’s literally all as far as I can tell.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Lower than 1 star actually

*2026-03-15, version 9718*

Bad software, poor service, and difficult to clean uninstall when you figure that out.  Drop and run.

### 1/5 — FIX THE DAMN APP

*2026-02-18, version 9022*

The screen flashes once I open the app on my iPhone. This is ridiculous. You guys haven't fixed it for a while. This is terrible quality assurance

### 1/5 — Funktioniert auf dem iPad leider nicht

*2026-01-11, version 9022*

Habe die App unter ipadOS 26.1 installiert und wollte sie sogleich ausprobieren. Leider gibt es für die mobile Anwendung nur eine Installationsanleitung. Ein Tutorial nur Benutzung auf dem iPad habe ich nicht gefunden. Konnte ein Tracking somit nicht einschalten. 
App wieder gelöscht

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work

*2025-11-18, version 9022*

Work well on Mac but terrible on iOS, it constantly log off (even if I check every other days or 1 to 2 weeks top) that’s already annoying and now I can’t even log in as the splash page is blinking furiously and doesn’t let me type anything anywhere.

### 1/5 — Anmeldung nicht möglich, Display flackert

*2025-09-16, version 9022*

Die iOS App von mailbutler ist eine auf das Wesentliche reduzierte Companion-App und wirklich nur für die Fälle, in denen man etwas nachschauen möchte und keinen Zugriff auf seinen Mac hat.
Allerdings lässt es sich mit der aktuellen Version nicht anmelden. Das Display flackert wie verrückt, während die App ständig versucht, sich mit dem Account zu verbinden.
Bitte behebt das Problem!

### 1/5 — Awful

*2025-07-21, version 9008*

Flashes upon trying to launch app and is stuck there. Has not been corrected for months :(

### 1/5 — Can’t log i

*2025-06-27, version 8926*

As soon as I open the app, the screen starts blinking rapidly and I’m not able to log in.

### 1/5 — Doesn’t work on gmail on iOS

*2025-04-11, version 8701*

Whilst it works fine on laptop, it will not work on iOS when gmail account is used. Will not send any gmail message. This has been going on for a while. No fix despite several requests. Whenever I ask for update I get “ still working on it”!

### 1/5 — Schermata iniziale lampeggiante

*2025-04-04, version 8701*

La schermata iniziale (quella che ogni volta si “resetta” come se non ci si fosse mai registrati) continua a lampeggiare, impedendo di inserire nome utente e password. In questo modo la app è inutilizzabile su iPad.

### 1/5 — doesnt work anymore

*2025-02-27, version 8421*

it even doesnt work anymore. i never see read on my mac and iphone app even dnt load.

### 5/5 — Great app for biz dev

*2026-02-03, version 9022*

Helps us understand the open rates and engagement very well

### 5/5 — Tremendous help

*2026-01-09, version 9022*

Could not function without Mailbutler! Use it on my MacBook, and my iPhone. I use it to create mail templates to streamline workflow, and it is incredibly helpful to know my clients received and opened my emails. Love the signature functions that I
have for each email address and the reliability of the app!  Have used it for 5 years and it has never let me down.

### 5/5 — Works well

*2023-01-06, version Changed description*

Works quite well, seems to be accurate and reliable, provides lots of information, and it integrates well with apple mail on mac which is what I’ve been looking for. Overall very good!

### 5/5 — Excellent Mail Add-On

*2021-12-19, version 4609*

I've had Mailbutler for about 2 or 3 weeks. It's easily the best mail plug-in I've had on my device. I particularly like the mail tracking, send later and snooze features. And the subscription has been a must for me. Great app. Simple. Intuitive. Keep up the great work guys.

### 5/5 — Highly recommended

*2021-07-12, version 3802*

Very useful features that I wished Mail would have. When it is used in combination with the desktop app, it is great for scheduling and tracking delivery of emails. What I like most: - email scheduling - delivery & read tracker - delayed sending Email scheduling alone is worth the money.

### 5/5 — Good product

*2021-07-07, version 3802*

Till now it has been a good purchase, very useful.

### 5/5 — Indispensable

*2021-07-06, version 3802*

Suivi des mails, signatures personnalisées, envois différés, assignation de tâches, ….

### 5/5 — if you need apple’s privacy standards but lack macos/ios mail functions

*2021-07-06, version 3802*

this app is for you then. with mailbutler you’ll get the much needed send later/snooze/create task functions

### 5/5 — Changed my life!

*2021-07-06, version 3802*

I couldn’t imagine my life without Mailbutler anymore! Being able to pre-program emails to be sent at specific times has saved me from always having to be on call to send reminders to my boss. I can set and forget — and my computer doesn’t even need to be on. Another things I love is that Mailbutler tells me when emails I sent have been opened and even if the recipients have clicked on the links or opened the attachments. My third favorite thing is that I can stop the sending process within a set amount of time I configured, for those times you hit send and realize you forgot a detail or need to delete something. Awesome app!!!

### 5/5 — Fantastic tool

*2021-07-06, version 3802*

Great add ons for both MAcOS and iOS, I can see when and where my emails and links were opened saving me time and the follow up uptions with notes are a great addition
