We
all know about Gmail so i think no intro is required for Gmail in this
article. You always wanted to schedule your email in Gmail but as it’s
not available in Gmail by default we need to add Boomerang under Gmail account to schedule an email.
Boomerang
is a Firefox / Chrome plugin that lets you take control of when you
send and receive email messages. It helps you Remember to pay bills,
Schedule birthday/holiday notes when you have time to write, And lots
more! Right now Boomerang is only available for two browsers Google
Chrome and Firefox.
Features of Boomerang
Send an email later: Using
Boomerang, you can write an email now and schedule it to be sent
automatically at the perfect time. Just write the message as you
normally would, then click the Send Later button.
Reminders: Sometimes
we feel to clear inbox, but as it stores important data which we needs
in future we don’t usually delete them but using Boomerang to take
messages out of inbox until we actually need them. Just click on
Boomerang button when you have an email open, and choose when you need
it again. Boomerang will archive the message. At the time you chose and
bring it back to your inbox, marked unread, starred, or even at the top
of your message list.
Now with Magic: If
you get an email that describes a date or a time, Boomerang offers to
return the message at exactly the right time with just one click! For
instance, if you get an email that describes a meeting at 4pm on
Thursday Boomerang will automatically suggest returning the message 2
hours before - so you have time to prepare for the meeting and have the
location and details handy when you arrive.
How to Install Boomerang?
1)
As I told before Boomerang is available for only two browsers Google
Chrome and Firefox so at the time of installation you must be either on
Google Chrome or Firefox.
2) Now, download Boomerang for Gmail, and install, and then restart your browser.
3)
After installation you will see a Boomerang link in the top-right
corner of your Gmail screen. Now time to schedule your email, click on
compose new email and using Boomerang button schedule it.
Imagine
you’re in your friend’s home and both of you are using his/her lappy
and suddenly your email comes to his/her inbox, tricky right? Use it,
however you want.
