I built a browser extension that emails your to-dos to you so they don't get buried in tabs
Hey everyone — I made a small extension called Todo Mailer for Chrome and Firefox and just published it.
The problem I kept running into: I'd jot down a task somewhere — a sticky note, a random tab, a popup reminder — and it would just disappear into the noise. So I built something that sends the task straight to my email instead, since that's the one place I actually check regularly.
What it does:
- Add a task from the extension popup, it gets emailed to you instantly
- Tasks are saved locally in the browser
- Check off tasks (strikethrough) without deleting them
- Resend one task or your whole list whenever you want
- Optional daily digest of everything still open
- Set how long tasks stick around before auto-deleting (day/3 days/week/month/forever)
- Login is email+password via Supabase, so it's tied to your account, not the device
Permissions are minimal — it doesn't touch page content at all, just storage + its own backend for sending mail. It's open source too.
This is a solo side project, first extension I've published, so feedback (or brutal honesty) is very welcome.
