Subify is a browser extension for Google Chrome1 that enables you to create
unique subaddresses for the
websites you visit. Subaddressing is a feature of most email providers that
allows you to tag your existing email address with additional information (e.g.
john.doe+my.custom.tag@example.com
). The best part is that emails sent to the
subaddress are delivered to the inbox you already use.
- Manage your inbox with filters and rules based on the subaddress.
- Protect your privacy by providing unique email addresses at sign-up2.
- Create test accounts for development and testing.
- Identify the source of spam and unwanted emails.
- Add multiple email addresses from the Generate tab3
- Choose between presets (e.g. custom, domain, and timestamp).
- Autofill input fields from the right-click context menu.
- Manage copied and autofilled subaddresses from the History tab.
The extension requests only necessary permissions in order to respect user privacy and adhere to the Chrome Web Store's updated privacy policy.
