Unroll.Me helps users organize their inboxes by allowing them to keep, block, or 'roll up' email subscriptions into a single digest. While many users find it highly effective for reducing clutter, a notable number of recent reviews highlight issues with app stability, connectivity, and the removal of key features like the direct unsubscribe option.

What users like

What users complain about

  • The direct 'unsubscribe' option has been removed, leaving only 'keep', 'block', or 'roll up', which frustrates users who want to fully stop emails.R11R57R77R86
  • Blocked or 'unrolled' emails often continue to appear in the inbox, indicating the feature is not always effective.R8R20R39R68
  • Users experience difficulties logging in, often getting stuck in verification loops or 'something went wrong' messages.R92R97R99R110

  • Some users report that the app does not find all subscriptions or spam, or that spam increased after using the app.R27R31R48R54
  • The app has limitations on which email hosts it supports and cannot add all email types.R24R49R72R108

Latest update · v3.3.29

What the developer says changed (the verdict above weighs this against what reviewers report):

Bug fixes and other improvements to make your experience more enjoyable.

Recurring themes

Effectiveness mixed
Many users find Unroll.Me highly effective at cleaning up their inboxes by managing subscriptions and reducing clutter. However, a significant number report that it doesn't work as expected, with blocked emails still appearing or failing to find all subscriptions/spam.R1R2R5R8
Technical Issues negative
A major theme is the app's instability and frequent malfunctions. Users report it mysteriously stopping working, failing to connect or reconnect email accounts, getting stuck in login/verification loops, and general 'something went wrong' errors. The developer's notes mention 'bug fixes', but recent reviews contradict this with ongoing reports of instability.R3R12R15R18
Missing Features negative
Users are frustrated by the removal of the direct 'unsubscribe' option, which was a core feature. Some also note limitations on adding non-popular email hosts and difficulties managing multiple mailboxes or undoing accidental blocks.R11R24R49R57
User Experience/UI mixed
While some find the app easy to use, others criticize the UI for being cumbersome, slow, or confusing. Specific complaints include needing to tap 'block' multiple times, slowed blocking speed, difficulty with bulk actions, issues opening rolled-up emails, and a 'terrible UI issue' where lists jump.R6R16R17R25
Privacy Concerns negative
A few users express concerns about privacy, citing the app changing email passwords or potentially selling email addresses, leading to increased spam.R48R65R69R71

Who it's for

Unroll.Me is for individuals overwhelmed by email subscriptions who want a free tool to quickly organize their inbox by blocking, keeping, or consolidating newsletters R1R2R5R13. It is particularly useful for those who appreciate the 'Roll Up' feature for daily digests R2R41R50R106. It may not be suitable for users with Yahoo email accounts due to frequent connection issues R12R26, those who need a direct unsubscribe option R11R57R77R86, or users with non-popular email hosts R24R49R72R108.

Evidence note: The recent reviews skew negative (0.392 recent-negative signal), which contrasts with the high lifetime rating of 4.66783. This indicates a recent decline in user satisfaction, likely due to the reported technical issues and feature changes. While positive reviews still exist, the volume and specificity of negative feedback regarding app functionality and missing features are significant. The privacy concerns are mentioned by a smaller number of users, making that theme less prevalent but still noteworthy.

  1. [R1] 5/5 · US Awesomeness!: Love love love Unroll.Me - Email Cleanup! Such a great way to keep your inbox organized! Highly recommend this app!
  2. [R2] 5/5 · US This app is wonderful!: I’ve been looking for something like this for a long time!! I have subscribed to so many things over the years and let’s be honest, who has the time or wants to go through their thousands of emails to unsubscribe (just the thought of it is exhausting), but with this app, it gives you the option to “keep”, “block” or “roll up” each subscriber. So instead of getting bombarded
  3. [R5] 5/5 · US Great app: This is very helpful to me because it saves me time dealing with all emails!
  4. [R13] 5/5 · US Super clean email: This puts you in control of how much junk email you get. This works great.
  5. [R41] 5/5 · US Fantastic: I love being able to have an option to roll up emails because I don’t wanna unsubscribe but I don’t wanna delete either. I’m not sure how I do without their service.
  6. [R50] 4/5 · US Helps email clutter: With Unroll.Me, I can see important emails first and then look at my "rolled up" emails that have sporadic importance. I have the choice to look at them now, later or delete them all!
  7. [R106] 3/5 · US Good concept, needs work: Keeps crashing anytime you use the search tab to look up a subscription. Makes the app partially useless. It is nice that you can roll up some of these subscriber emails into one however.
  8. [R6] 5/5 · US Great app!: Great app, super easy and fun to use. Really helpful after I got email bombed by a hacker. Highly recommend Unroll.Me!
  9. [R16] 5/5 · US Efficient!: Love the efficiency and ease of unroll me!
  10. [R35] 5/5 · US App: The App is very user friendly
  11. [R43] 5/5 · US Easy to use: Works well very useful
  12. [R3] 1/5 · US Used to work: I really liked this app until it mysteriously stopped working. I find it very unstable
  13. [R12] 1/5 · US broke yahoo: broke yahoo
  14. [R15] 1/5 · US This site: Doesn’t work
  15. [R18] 1/5 · US Can’t get in: You made me change my email password and now I can’t even get unroll me to work
  16. [R11] 1/5 · US What happened: This app used to have a option to ACTUALLY unsubscribe from unwanted emails and now it’s gone so you can only “keep”, “rollup”, or “block” emails. How does an app with a name as a play on words to un-enroll yourself from something no longer have that as an option? Please put the unsubscribe button back.
  17. [R57] 1/5 · US What happened to unsubscribe?: The main reason I use this app is to quickly unsubscribe from emails. It appears that’s no longer an option.
  18. [R77] 4/5 · US Makes elife so simple!: Fabulous app! Easy to use with responsive support. Wish you hadn’t taken away the unsubscribe option, I don’t want to block some of these emails but rather unsubscribe and now that isn’t an option…
  19. [R86] 3/5 · US Unsubscribe: What happened to the unsubscribe option? I’m only able to block.
  20. [R8] 1/5 · US No change: Yes you can block, delete or roll…. But they still come back
  21. [R20] 3/5 · US I’m not sure: I get so much spam, I don’t know where it comes from.. I keep unrolling but they still show up
  22. [R39] 1/5 · US Spam: Does not help with the spam. Even if I move it back to my inbox, it doesn't take care of it.
  23. [R68] 1/5 · US Not working: This worked for one day and now all this bad email is back.
  24. [R92] 1/5 · US Keeps asking to generate password: Uninstalled, it shouldn’t be this difficult. In a loop of generating password.
  25. [R97] 1/5 · US Just stupid: Trying to login but it keeps asking for more verification methods. I have done over 5 different verification methods and still isn’t logging me in its just stupid and i know it’s trying to keep my account safe but come on theres safe and then theres just stupidity
  26. [R99] 1/5 · US Can’t even use it: It won’t connect my Google account, it keeps blocking it and asking for a passkey. When I try another way and put in my password, it wants me to set up two step authorization but I can’t because I don’t have a working phone number right now. I need to clear these emails so I can actually use my email account while my phone is out of service. I’ll just have to do it manually smh
  27. [R110] 1/5 · US Waste of time: Download app signed up and could not get past part 2 to use my google email! Deleted app cuz it’s not worth it
  28. [R25] 3/5 · US Good but Cumbersome: You now have to hit “block” several times to get rid of an item in your inbox. Sometimes, it takes 3 times to actually block the email address. I think this started with the app upgrade a few months ago. Please fix this.
  29. [R30] 2/5 · US Decreased speed: Originally , I could block several unwanted emails , now the app rate has slowed down tremendously and I can only block ONE at a time . If this could be fixed , that would be helpful
  30. [R33] 3/5 · US Functions great, app needs help: I have used this service for years and it has worked wonders. I recommend it to all my friends and family that have huge amounts of unread emails. The app is good, but you have to wait and delete each address. You used to be able to click multiple accounts at a time and unroll them quickly. It’s not the biggest hassle but it could be more user friendly.
  31. [R75] 2/5 · US Great at first: This app definitely cleaned up some junk mail but now when it sends the daily digest of roll ups, I can’t open the emails if I want to look at them. When I go to the app, nothing is there either. I have to delete the app and re download to see my account.
  32. [R27] 1/5 · US BS: this app does not deliver. It’s proposed that your email will be cleaned up. But the focus is entirely on new subscriptions, very new. I’ve got dozens and dozens of subscriptions that I’d like to get rid of, but this app was no help at all! None!! my mother
  33. [R31] 3/5 · US Pretty good: While it didn’t show me & remove all my subs I don’t want anymore, it showed most of em and got rid of em well
  34. [R48] 1/5 · US Worthless.: Doesn’t take long to know if something has value. After installing, and giving it license to look at my emails, which is opening up my personal life to an unknown entity, the app ran a scam. It came back with “no subscriptions” to delete. Now, I’ve given up more privacy and gotten no value from it. This thing is a POS. CLEANFOX did work as advertised.
  35. [R54] 1/5 · US Malo: No cumple nada con su función sigo recibiendo correos de páginas web que no detecta
  36. [R24] 1/5 · US I can’t add a 2nd Email: I can’t add a 2nd Email much less a 3rd!
  37. [R49] 4/5 · US Won’t accept duck.com email inbox: App appears to be limited to only a handful of top email accounts. I use duck.com, an email function offered by Duck Duck Go, to block tracking bots in incoming emails. There is no option to add optional email accounts.
  38. [R72] 2/5 · US Good concept but requires improvement: After years still not there: (+) 1. good concept, practical tool to unsubscribe, since many eMails do not include, Apple Mail should enforce this feature (-) 1. you cannot add ANY eMAIL, only popular hosts 2. DATE all eMail so we know when we supposedly subscribed, to save much time when unsubscribing instead of go through entire alphabetical list of hundre
  39. [R108] 1/5 · US Not happy: Doesn’t clean out old mail. Also, doesn’t cover all email services.
  40. [R17] 1/5 · US Confusing: Very confusing looks like a college project Can’t even figure out what roll up is compared to block or simply erase
  41. [R65] 1/5 · US Password changed and Privacy Breached: This app immediately changed my password settings in Google, which was flagged by three other apps connected to Google. The privacy statement specifically says they can sell your data. At least it’s not hard to access any of this information, but this needs to be on the front part of the app before you sign up.
  42. [R69] 1/5 · US selling email address: either this app or “chuck” will actually subscribe your email address to other random promotional emails
  43. [R71] 3/5 · US Practical but weak updates: After years (since 2013) still not there: lazy or incompetent or cheap? (+) 1. good concept, practical tool to unsubscribe, since many eMails do not include, Apple Mail should enforce this feature (-) 1. Ironic, after using UNroll to UNsubscribe junk, i got many more subscriptions, as if UNroll shares or is unsafe and leaks your eMail to databases?? 2. you cannot add
  44. [R38] 5/5 · US We’re very happy: We’re very happy to have found Unroll.Me. My wife and I are both disabled, retired and on fixed income. This was the only kind of program of its kind we found that didn’t charge us and were very grateful. 🙏
  45. [R73] 5/5 · US Cleaning out my mail box for free: Getting more room and deleting those untrustworthy and annoying spam emails with ease.
  46. [R76] 5/5 · US Genuine Recommendation: I love this app. It’s free and you can “Select All”, something other apps don’t have the option for. So fricking amazing
  47. [R22] 5/5 · US Help- unrollme isn’t working and I can’t log in. Has it gone down?: Unrollme isn’t working, won’t log me in. Is it down. I need a contact point!
  48. [R26] 1/5 · US 0/10: Used for years. Now won’t let me login to my yahoo accounts. Support not helpful.
