I meant cases where a single email thread goes off-track — like long reply chains with ‘+1’, side discussions, or irrelevant CCs. It becomes hard to follow the actual important updates. Curious how your approach handles separating signal vs noise in those messy threads.

@trydoff That's a great point. I'm going to need to import some test data and ensure it covers cases like these. Thanks for the suggestion!
This looks amazing. How is the privacy handled?
Congrats on the launch 🎉

@basharath Essentially, we've put it together in a way so everything is done in your browser, in the same way "on-device" works. There's no need for an account, for data to be processed by us, and we use the fewest Chrome permissions possible. Anything that's done with your email is between you, god, and the local copy of Apparent.
@apparentforgmail That's great to hear that things work on device

A few things I’m considering adding, but I’m not sure how widely useful they are:
* persistent undo/redo list
* adjustable left sidebar width
* collapsible labels list
* keeping the right sidebar minimized
* built-in dark mode
Curious which of these, if any, people would actually care about. Can email me at useapparent@gmail.com

Does the "read latest message first" feature work across nested conversation threads or just top level replies? Such a needed quality of life improvement for Gmail, well done!
Finally!! I've missed so many important updates because Gmail hides the latest messages deep inside long threads. 😭 Also, runs locally is exactly what i look for. Thanks for making this free.
