### 5/5 — Use it a lot

*2025-03-16, version 2.2.1*

Sure it’s simple. That’s why I use it! It’s like having a digital assistant around to take notes for me. Invaluable.

### 5/5 — Amazing App! I can’t live without it!

*2025-03-13, version 2.2.1*

This app just works. It is awesome. I can’t live without it. I use it all the time. Works flawlessly. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

### 5/5 — Extremely useful

*2025-02-21, version 2.1.4*

This is one of the most useful apps I’ve ever downloaded. Also very simple and easy to use. Beautiful in both simplicity and functionality.

### 5/5 — わかりやすい

*2024-12-17, version 2.1.4*

設定も簡単で必要十分

### 5/5 — Great App

*2024-12-13, version 2.1.4*

Great Captio replacement. Please add the feature that if the App is removed from memory, the contents of the current message are not lost. Thanks

### 5/5 — Funktioniert Super

*2024-12-05, version 2.1.4*

Einfach eine super App die anstandslos das macht was sie soll.

### 5/5 — 素晴らしい

*2024-11-17, version 2.1.4*

すごく重宝しています。アドレスを2つ設定できるのも助かります。ひとつ贅沢を言わせてもらえば、送ったもののログが残れば尚いいのにな、と思います。

### 5/5 — Using it for years, can’t live without it

*2024-11-09, version 2.1.4*

For my sanity I don’t keep my email on my phone, but want to send stuff to myself for later. Great tool, works exactly as expected.

### 5/5 — So convenient!

*2024-11-07*

I used another app with a similar function for almost 10 years, but it stopped working recently. So I found Boomerang. This is awesome! Even better than the one I was using — and that’s saying a lot. Thank you!

### 5/5 — Handy

*2024-11-06, version 2.1.4*

Simple, efficient, clean.  All that I need

### 5/5 — does what it says!

*2024-10-17, version 2.1.4*

is good

### 5/5 — Old Captio user

*2024-10-13, version 2.1.4*

Boomerang works better than Captio did and I found Captio really useful :-)=

### 5/5 — Perfect replacement for Captio

*2024-10-07, version 2.1.4*

Perfect replacement for Captio. Reliable functionality and I like being able to add multiple email addresses.

### 5/5 — Excelente !!

*2024-09-24, version 2.1.4*

O que mais gostei é quetem senha independente da senha do celular

### 5/5 — The app is very useful when trying to send a reminder to myself

*2024-08-04, version 2.1.4*

The app works well and makes a QuickNote for a reminder to your email, and that comes in handy for remembering things

### 5/5 — Fantastic

*2024-06-14, version 2.1.4*

I’ve used this app for years over both Android and iPhone. It’s the app I immediately download to every new phone. It works perfectly every time, 100% of the time. Quiet, unassuming, feature-filled but simple yet capable (example: tell Siri to send a boomerang - works. I use apps from huge companies that can’t even do such a simple task). Seriously, download this now. The developer should get a presidential medal or something. Can you tell that I love love love this app?

### 5/5 — Exactly what I need

*2024-04-22, version 2.1.4*

This is a simple tool that does an important thing. Whenever you find some thing that is interesting and you want to send it to yourself you can quickly and easily send it to your primary email address with this app. You can either do it by opening the app and pasting the information in or you can do it from a ‘send to’ widget. You can configure two email addresses. I use one for myself and the second one to send things to my wife.

## Most critical reviews (10 lowest-rated)

### 1/5 — Can't enter email address

*2023-01-30, version 2.1.4*

"invalid" email address   🤷‍♂️

### 1/5 — Geht nur noch sporadisch

*2019-08-22, version 1.3.6*

Seit einiger Zeit kommen die "Boomerange" nur noch sporadisch an. Egal aus welcher App heraus. So bringt das nichts und die App macht keinen Sinn mehr.

### 1/5 — Stopped to work...

*2017-10-20, version 1.2.3*

It works at the beginning but now no email arrive in my mailbox, even in junk mail

### 2/5 — Pas de reconnaissance envers les premiers utilisateurs

*2025-03-11, version 2.2.0*

Cette application comporte maintenant des frais, même si vous étiez un utilisateur depuis longtemps. Nous avons contribué à faire connaître votre application. 

Au lieu de reconnaître ce que nous avons fait pour vous en préservant un droit acquis, vous nous facturez des frais. Le prix demandé est exorbitant pour la fonction supplémentaire!

### 2/5 — Un temps d’envoi très long

*2024-02-04, version 2.1.4*

Application qui serait parfaite si le temps d’envoi n’était pas aussi long.

### 3/5 — Broke

*2026-07-02, version 2.3.0*

My favorite and most used app updated and now does nothing. 

I missed so many notes because they just never arrived. 

Was 1,000,000 out of ten. Now 3? Maybe they will fix.

### 3/5 — Plötzlich kostenpflichtig

*2025-04-13, version 2.2.1*

Gute App. War eine gute und zuverlässige App. Leider wurde nun die 2. Emailadresse über Nacht kostenpflichtig. Schade. 
Leider ist der Preis auch viel zu hoch, sonst hätte ich es vielleicht mir auch überlegt diese App zu kaufen. Schade.

### 3/5 — Works exactly as described. However…

*2023-10-22, version 2.1.4*

This app is missing a function I assumed it had. Thus, my measly three stars are my own fault. I assumed.

I’d like to be able to specify the date and time the email appears in my inbox. That would be a great way to remind myself of a task I need to get done.

Instead, it sends an email from me 
—to me—the moment it’s sent. I’m sure there’s a purpose for that, though I don’t know what it might be. The way I’ve been using it is to “snooze” the email I receive so it pops up as a reminder when I need it to.

It would be terrific to circumvent that extra step. Short of my missreading, the app works EXACTLY as described.

### 3/5 — Déçu

*2022-01-04, version 2.1.4*

L application est super intéressante mais dommage que ça ne fonctionne pas l application note . Ça met un message d erreur ...

### 3/5 — Fonctionne parfaitement bien, mais quid de la confidentialité ?

*2020-08-15, version 2.1.3*

Comme beaucoup, je cherchais depuis longtemps une alternative à Mail2Self et ai donc testé Boomerang. Rien à dire concernant la configuration ou le fonctionnement : tout se passe comme attendu et très bien. 
Je me pose en revanche une question au sujet de la confidentialité : en effet, contrairement à Mail2Self, les emails sont routés depuis les serveurs choisis par le développeur de l’application et non pas « auto-expédiés » en utilisant notre propre adresse email. 
J’ai d’ailleurs parallèlement testé la création d’un raccourci (avec l’application Apple du même nom) et ai obtenu - me semble-t-il - un fonctionnement similaire après une configuration qui m’a pris deux minutes (et, je précise, sans aucune connaissance préalable de cette appli). Et dans ce cas, l’email est bien expédié par mon adresse mail configurée par défaut. 
Merci par avance au développeur pour sa réponse ; je modifierai bien entendu ma notation en fonction de cette dernière.

### 5/5 — Two taps to share

*2026-06-20, version 2.3.0*

The best thing to send almost anything shareable to myself for follow up. Can’t recommend enough. Do yourself a favour and install this app. Send some love to the developer, they deserve it.

### 5/5 — Saves sleep

*2026-06-18, version 2.3.0*

This thing saves me so much sleep when I wake up with a thought for work or something to do personally the next day or throughout the week. I used to write it down in a notebook but this is so much faster. Paid for the 2nd email and could not be happier! 
The Yoyo rebrand threw me for a loop but this is one of the best apps I’ve ever had!! Cannot recommend it enough!

### 5/5 — Simple and useful

*2026-06-18, version 2.3.0*

What a beautiful example of a simple and useful application. No bloat, no confusion, no piling on of unneeded and unnecessary features. It does what it says it will do simply, effectively, and beautifully. I use it many times over the course of a single day.

### 5/5 — Großartig

*2025-11-27, version 2.2.1*

Die beste App im Universum! Und genau das was ich gesucht habe; schnell, einfach, genial. Wenn es ging würde ich einen 6ten Stern vergeben 😀 Bitte ipad- Unterstützung nachreichen.

### 5/5 — ora è ok!!!

*2025-08-13, version 2.2.1*

👍👍👍

### 5/5 — Seamless

*2025-07-31, version 2.2.1*

Much better than the alternatives and I’ve tried them all.

### 5/5 — Very useful

*2025-05-12, version 2.2.1*

Essential, I have been using it everyday for many years.

### 5/5 — Excellent

*2025-04-27, version 2.2.1*

Excellent et gratuit. The perfect tool

### 5/5 — Schlicht und funktional

*2025-03-25, version 2.2.1*

Tut was es soll und alles ohne Werbung, weiter so! 👍

### 5/5 — Best productivity app for GTD

*2025-03-18, version 2.2.1*

If you are a fan of GTD methodolog like I am, you need a solid capture system. For me, this is it. A lightning-fast, no-frills app that I can open and capture any idea to my email instantly. I love that it works with the share menu so that I can capture links to anything online with one click. It loads fast which is really important. The design has no distractions. And, now the keyboard supports dark mode so even in the dead of night I can capture ideas without burning my retinas. I feel lucky that this app exists and is still in active development (although it's completely perfect in my opinion and needs no improvement).
