Gnuke

Gnuke on your phone

Gnuke also runs on your phone. Open app.getgnuke.com, sign in with Google, and the app finds your biggest senders. Tap one and Gnuke does what the extension does: it unsubscribes you and moves everything that sender ever sent you to the Trash. Your phone talks straight to Gmail. No Gnuke server sits in between.

What you can do in the app

  • See which senders fill your inbox, ranked by how much they send.
  • Nuke a sender: unsubscribe, then trash every email they ever sent you.
  • Keep what matters. Starred mail stays, and so do the senders you mark as always keep.
  • Undo for 30 days if you change your mind. Gnuke never deletes anything permanently.

Each result is reported per sender, so you see whether Gnuke sent the unsubscribe request, sent an unsubscribe email from your address, or opened the sender's page for you. The full story is in how it works.

Add it to your Home Screen

Add the app to your Home Screen and it opens full screen, like any other app on your phone. You only do this once.

iPhone

  1. Open app.getgnuke.com in Safari.
  2. Tap the Share button.
  3. Tap Add to Home Screen, then tap Add.

Android

  1. Open app.getgnuke.com in Chrome.
  2. Tap the menu (the three dots) at the top right.
  3. Tap Add to Home screen, or Install app if you see it, then confirm.

Weekly reminder

If you want a nudge, the app can send you a weekly reminder notification on the day and hour you pick. On iPhone, reminders only work once the app is added to the Home Screen.

Privacy

The phone app has no analytics, ads or tracking. It reads message metadata from Gmail on your phone, stores its history in your browser's own storage, and opens a message body only when it has to find an unsubscribe link the headers don't carry. On an interactive sign-in it asks Google for your name and photo to show your avatar. Read the whole thing in the privacy policy.

Pricing

The free plan covers 10 nukes a month. Unlimited is $2.99 a month, and on a phone it comes with the Gnuke phone app. Paid plans aren't on sale yet. See pricing for where things stand.

On a computer, the Chrome extension puts a bomb button right in Gmail. The phone app nukes a sender the same way.
