Read Detector is an email tracker for track your email and receive Read Receipts.
This application detects and alerts you when your emails are read by their recipients.
Often people do not respond to emails. Yet this can be very useful to know whether they have been read. For example, when you send a resume, a price quote, an invoice, a claim and many other cases.
Use Read Detector to send your emails to monitor. Then, at the same time that the recipient read the message, you will receive a push notification on your iPhone or iPad !
Read Detector is not a mail application. Read Detector works with the iPhones Mail application. So you do not change your habits. Your emails are always in the same place. There are no parameter setting to do, and no opening account !
For track email, you just need to send the emails to monitor with Read Detector.
Then you will find them in the "Sent" folder of iPhones Mail application.
When an email sent with Read Detector is read, an alert is triggered. It tells you the date and time of reading as well as the operating system used by the recipient for read the email.
At any time, you can change the detection settings of each of the tracked emails. For example :
- Receive a push notification or not
- just the first
- no more than 3
- always
Whatever your choice for the number of notifications, alerts will still be saved on the server. You can see them with a manual refresh (pull down on emails list).
To stop receiving alerts for one email, you must remove it from Read Detector (using left swipe).
