Reviews & Comments of Gmail Inline Image Fit chrome extension

Just WOW! This has been plaguing me for years. So nice to be able to read all the text. Thank you!

Sadly doesn't work. My colleague on a MAC/Chrome does not have this same issue looking at the same email with large images; her desktop shrinks the images automatically. I was hoping this would fix the issue for my on a PC.

Doesn't do anything

It works! Can't believe this issue exists for years without native fix by Google.

Used to work phenomenally, was one of my best add-ons, now it doesn't work at all.

Used to work - now it doesn't. Absolutely HATE(!) Google for not just fixing this stupid issue. "Dear" Google, why are you so arrogant?

Tried this. It did not work.

Completely useless, has no effect whatsoever.

Godammit! THANK YOU!!!!!! I work with LARGE images ALL the time (freelance artist) and this was driving me nuts!. I looked for months and months probably years, and didn't find a solution until today. I'm in a windows 10 pc by the way.

As far as I can tell, this extension does absolutely nothing. I'm still scrolling side to side like crazy, just as much as I did before installing the extension.

Thank you, Igor, for this very helpful little extension. It has stopped working now, otherwise I'd leave 5 stars. I appreciated it while it lasted.

Doesn't do what it's supposed to, so I still have to scroll horizontally for large images in Gmail.

Amazing extension. Should be default in Gmail. Only one issue which has forced me to disable it... it makes emojis HUGE. Link to Reddit discussion here. Please let us know when this bug has been fixed

You're telling me all this time, all I needed was this extension? Why doesn't Google include this natively???

Doesn't work

A must have! Works perfectly, thank you.

Relief! Thank you so much. This should be included in gmail. Makes a big difference in reading through longer emails and ones that have attachments.

For the love of god why is this not already a part of Gmail? Using the side panel for previews is such a pain because if the image is larger than the panel you have to scroll over to find the reply button. This makes the images dynamic and shrinks them to fit. Simple and easy. Thank you!

This extension should be removed as it does not work.

Awesome! it works, even in vivaldi! how is this still not normal behaviour in gmail is beyond me.. it's been many many years..

Not working at all

Not working at all

This extension does nothing. At all. It has no effect at all. What it's supposed to do would be AMAZING! It's something I desperately, desperately need. But this extension does not do it. In fact it does nothing at all.

No longer working :-(

I need an extension that does what this one says it will do, but I installed it in my new MacBook Air and it didn't have any effect. I still have to scroll very far left and right to read some emails in gmail.

Exactly what I was looking for. Appalled I have to install an extension (C'mon Gmail, why isn't this built in?) but I'm happy this extension exists. Thank you for making it!

Extension not working. Here's a solution that works for me: Install Stylus: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/stylus/clngdbkpkpeebahjckkjfobafhncgmne?hl=en Use this style rule on domain mail.google.com .h7 img { max-width: 95%; height: auto; object-fit: contain; }

Works well in Edge (Sept 2020). However when printing a message, the photo is still way too large. At any rate, a big relief, though it's astonishing Gmail still can't handle inline photos intelligently in 2020. Thank you dev.

no longer works.

Can't believe this isn't implemented in GMail. Works perfectly, thanks!

makes the show details arrow in gmail vanish

I love this extension ... except it seems like it doesn't work any longer =( Did Google change something on the end you need to support?

The extension is awesome with one exception: It hides the little down arrow that is found in the header of each email. So i can choose between seeing images without side scrolling or zooming way out; or i can see the details of the sender of an email (which, unfortunately, I need to do constantly for my job.) Once that bug is worked out, then its 5 stars.

This extension was awesome when it worked (seriously, why doesn't Gmail do this? I hate side-scrolling!), but within the past couple months, it no longer does. In fact, it's even worse than that - ever since it stopped working, it does the opposite, and causes many images to appear larger! Left a support note four weeks ago, but it seems the developer is AWOL. I'm removing it.

This worked perfectly!!! Thank you! Most of the time, images people send fit within the Gmail window, but every so often, I get photos that are just ginormous, and I have to scroll right and left to see it all, or I do a CTRL/CMD - Minus to make *everything* smaller till I can see the whole picture, and then have to make everything the right size again, after. This extension works a treat! I like that I can use it "on demand" and only invoke it when I click on the extension.

How is this not the Gmail default? I was about to pull my hair out trying to read emails from my client. This extension is a lifesaver.

Works! Time saver! Productivity booster! Horizontal-scroll destroyer!

This just works exactly as it is supposed to without doing other crazy things. THANK YOU.

Hallelujah!!!

Says what it does and does what it says. perfect.

Works with the preview pane. Most excellent.

It does the job! However it also affects other images – application icons and image in message editor, making it impossible to resize image when composing a message. Looking forward for the next version!

Where have you been all my G-life?

Worked great till recently, when it messed up the "Show Details" button to see the list of recipients of an email. The button now appears as a single pixel (see this question: https://support.google.com/mail/thread/6629703?hl=en). Disabled this extension till this issue can be fixed.

Excellent. Should be the chrome default behavior.

Perfect. No more scrolling to fit inline images. Why Google does not include is baffling. Thank you for creating it.

OMG why isn't this a part of GMAIL already....YEARS of this irritation wiped away. THANK YOU!

This little extension did the trick for me. Thanks a lot!

Working for me as of December 2018! Thank you very much to the developer. Absolutely pathetic of Google (as usual) that this isn't a core option of gmail. In the time that I've been using gmail they have two full scale redesigns of the UI that added nothing of value and yet this has never been fixed. Google's priorities are shockingly poor when it comes to improving their "apps".

This extension has stopped working with the recent gmail design update. It was great before! Hopefully the extension can be updated soon...

yes! finally no more oversized inline images!!!

Thank GOD someone figured this out.. This is fantastic. Now I can zoom in or out to read smaller text in an email and the image included in that text does not make me scroll right or left.. woohoo.. thank you .... thank you.....

Does what is says on the tin. Only thing that would improve it is if it also maintained the aspect ratio of the images when making them fit. Right now it stretches the images. Still infinitely better than horizontal scrolling though.

I can't believe gmail doesn't just include this with gmail. It is absolutely great. THANK YOU!!!!

Ditto to everyone else's satisfied comments and sentiments!

Does exactly what it's suppoed to. My mom would always send me high quality images that I couldn't see.

Gmail's image size problem was driving me insane. Thank you so much for this.

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!

Wonderful! Thank you soooo much. This has been irritating me for years.

THIS SHOULD BE STANDARD ISSUE WITH GMAIL! Well Done!

Works great! Thank you!!

Excellent - Works very well! The problem with large images in Gmail is difficult to explain let alone search for! Well done!

Thank goodness for that. It's a pity gmail doesn't include this as standard!

Should be a default option inside of Gmail. Thanks.

Brilliant!

You are a life saver. People at work often embed large screenshots in their mails, and it completely messes up the reply window. This works like a charm!

Thank you so much.
