Part 01 · Overview

Welcome

What it is, who it suits, its grades and the ten things to know first

3.2

GPA, above 47 of the 51 other email apps we grade

Unroll.Me is a free service for managing subscription emails. After you connect an email account it lists the subscriptions it finds and lets you keep each one, block it, or add it to the Rollup, a daily digest that gathers the chosen senders into a single email. It is owned by NielsenIQ, which pays for the service by using data from users' commercial emails, such as receipts and subscriptions, in its market research products.

To get you started, here are 8 things to know about Unroll.Me, taken from its own pages and our grades.

That's the whole product: no rules, snoozing or other inbox tools.

The report card

Best for clearing out newsletters for free

Unroll.Me lists the newsletters and promo lists in your inbox and lets you keep, block or roll each into one daily digest, free. That's the whole product: no rules, snoozing or other inbox tools. Its owner, NielsenIQ, uses data from your commercial emails, like receipts and subscriptions, in market research, and only Gmail, iCloud, Yahoo, AOL and Outlook accounts work, with no desktop app.

ToolGPA report cardUnroll.MeGraded Oct 10, 2026
SubjectGradeComment
Value for moneyAFree, with no paid tier listed at all, in a category whose paid plans start around $4 a month. The money comes from somewhere else: NielsenIQ uses information from your commercial emails in its market research. Decide if that's a price you'll pay.
Free plan and trialAFree outright on the web, iPhone and Android, across as many email accounts as you want to add. There is no cap to run into and nothing held back, because there is no paid plan to hold it for.
FeaturesCIt does its one job: list the subscriptions in your inbox, then Keep, Block or Rollup each sender, singly or in bulk, with the Rollup landing as one daily email. But that one job is a small slice of what an email tool does, and the listing says plainly there's nothing else here.
Ease of useB4.66 from about 132,000 App Store ratings, high but not the top of this category. Connect an account, run down the list, pick one of three choices per sender, and change your mind later from the Subscriptions tab.
Platforms and integrationsBWeb, iPhone and Android, hooked to Gmail, Google Apps, iCloud, Yahoo, AOL and Outlook accounts. No desktop app is listed, and a mailbox at any other provider isn't on the list.
Grade point averageVery good, out of 4.03.2

An A is worth 4 points, a B 3, a C 2, a D 1 and an F nothing. The GPA is the average of the five.

Who Unroll.Me is for

  • Fits if you're buried in newsletters and promo emails and want them sorted in one sitting
  • Works for people who'd rather read subscriptions in one daily digest

Who it is not for

  • Skip it if you don't want a market research company using data from your commercial emails
  • Not for you if your mail isn't with Gmail, Google Apps, iCloud, Yahoo, AOL or Outlook
  • Too light for anyone after rules or snoozing, as it only handles subscription emails
  • Watch out: there's no desktop app, only the browser and the iPhone and Android apps

Good to know

Good for

  • People buried in newsletters and promotional email

Keep it, or make your own?

Whether this is something you could build for yourself with an AI app builder, and what you would give up.

Keep it

Unroll.Me is free, so making your own would save you nothing.

And it is not the kind of software a weekend replaces. It is one of the better ones too: its GPA of 3.2 is higher than 47 of the 51 other email apps we grade.

What you could not

  • Connections to other products, each kept working as those products change.
  • Filters that read every message as it arrives.
  • A real app for iOS and Android. Something home-made would be a web page.

What this rests on. Unroll.Me’s listing: what it does, where it runs, what it plugs into and what it costs. It is a judgement about the kind of software this is. We have not built a replacement for it, and making your own means looking after it too. How we decide, and every tool’s verdict.

Part 05 · Refunds

After you pay

Getting your money back, getting out, and getting help

–Refunds
CSupport

What happens once you have paid: whether you can get your money back, how to leave, and how to reach a person when something goes wrong. Each is graded from Unroll.Me’s own terms and help pages.

Leaving Unroll.Me

–Grade

Not graded · checked Oct 18, 2026

Unroll.Me has no paid plan, so there is no money to get back and no subscription to stop. What you can end is the account, and that part is handled well: three ways to delete it, including one for people locked out of the app, and your actual emails never leave your mailbox because Unroll.Me says it doesn't store them. What it doesn't clear up for you are the labels it left behind.

Closing your account

There is no subscription to end. The account is deleted on the website by clicking your email address at the top right, opening Settings and choosing Delete My Account, or in the mobile app under the profile picture, then Mailboxes, the account, My Account and Delete Account. Anyone locked out can use the Delete My Account page and confirm with a six-digit code sent to the address.

  1. Log in to the Unroll.Me website
  2. Click your email account in the upper right corner and select Settings
  3. Select Delete My Account at the bottom of the page
Stated on support.unroll.me
What you keep afterwards

Unroll.Me says your emails stay safely in your email client because it does not store them on its servers. The Unroll.Me and Unroll.Me/Unsubscribed labels stay in your mailbox after deletion, with the rolled-up and blocked messages in them, and removing a label only hides it rather than deleting messages. The privacy notice says personal information is kept as long as reasonably necessary, with no period named.

Stated on support.unroll.me

In your favour

  • Nothing to pay, so there is nothing to cancel and nothing to claim back.
  • You delete the account yourself, on the website or in the app, in three steps.
  • Locked out? There's a page that deletes the account after a code sent to your email address.
  • Your messages stay in your mailbox, because Unroll.Me says it never stores them on its servers.

Watch out for

  • Deleting the account leaves the Unroll.Me labels and folders in your mailbox for you to clear up.
  • Removing one of those labels only hides it; the messages it was on stay where they are.
  • The privacy notice gives no fixed retention period, only as long as reasonably necessary.
  • Nothing we read says how long deletion takes or whether it is confirmed to you.

Customer support

CGrade

Ordinary · checked Oct 18, 2026

A written help centre and a ticket form, and that is the whole offer. The articles are short but they do cover the questions that matter, including deleting your account and what happens to your emails afterwards. Nothing states when anyone is working or how long a reply takes, and there is no chat and no phone. For a product that costs nothing, that is the ordinary deal, so a C.

Ways to get help

  • Email

    The help article on deleting an account gives a support email address to write to for additional assistance. No separate page sets out what that mailbox covers.

    Stated on support.unroll.me

  • Contact form or ticket

    A Submit a request form in the help centre, which asks you to pick an issue type and opens a ticket. It is linked as Contact Us from the website and from the foot of every help article.

    Stated on support.unroll.me

  • Help centre

    A public help centre with categories for General, My Account, Signing Up, Editing Your Subscriptions, The Rollup, Settings, Data & Privacy and Security. It is open without logging in.

    Stated on support.unroll.me

Not listed on Unroll.Me’s pages: live chat, phone.

When people answer

Its pages do not say.

How fast it says it replies

Its pages do not say.

What depends on your plan

Its pages do not say.

In your favour

  • The help centre is public and free, and so is opening a ticket.
  • There are articles on deleting your account and on what becomes of your emails afterwards.
  • Help articles carry a vote and a comment count, so you can see which ones people found useful.

Watch out for

  • No hours and no reply time are stated on any page we read.
  • There is no live chat and no phone line: it's a ticket or an email, and then you wait.
  • Several articles are years old, and the help centre shows how long ago each was updated.
  • The help centre sits behind a bot check, so it can be awkward to reach from some connections.

What these two grades rest on. Read on 18 October 2026: Unroll.Me's terms and conditions, its privacy notice and its Your Data page, the help-centre articles on deleting an account and on what happens to previously processed emails, the help centre's front page and its Submit a request form. Nobody here closed an account or contacted its support. They are graded apart from the five that make the GPA. How we grade refunds and support.
