ThreadTrim: Trim Quoted Text in Gmail Replies

Stop sending the whole conversation. Every time you reply in Gmail, the entire email history gets quoted underneath, again. On a long thread, a one-line reply can carry 60+ old emails, and whoever reads it has to scroll past all of them. ThreadTrim fixes that. When you reply, it removes all the old quoted emails before you hit Send, so only what you wrote goes out. Your reply stays short, the recipient sees what matters, and the thread stops growing. Also works in Outlook on the web (turn it on from the popup) HOW IT WORKS • Open any reply: Reply button, keyboard shortcuts (r / a), or a pop-out window • ThreadTrim removes the old quoted history automatically • A small bar shows what was removed, e.g. "Removed ~62 earlier emails" • Need the full history this time? Click Undo before you send SMART ABOUT WHAT IT CUTS • Everyone already has the history in their inbox, so nothing is lost • Prefer some context? Switch to keeping just the email you're replying to • Recognises quoted replies from the most common email apps, not just Gmail • Leaves forwards alone • Leaves short threads alone PRIVATE BY DESIGN • Runs entirely in your browser • No account, no servers, no analytics • Never reads your inbox, only the reply you're writing FREE PLAN • 100 trimmed replies a month, resetting on the 1st • Replies with nothing to trim don't count, and Undo gives a trim back • When you reach the limit, replies simply send the usual way SETTINGS • Keep nothing (recommended), or keep just the email you're replying to • Show or hide the "Trimmed" bar • See how many replies you've trimmed Why it matters: long reply chains bury the latest message, make it easy to miss what changed, and waste storage for everyone on the thread. Trimmed replies also mean the other person's next reply is short too. Gmail is a trademark of Google LLC. ThreadTrim is not affiliated with or endorsed by Google.
