Mail+ for Gmail
Mail+ for Gmail is a macOS desktop app that gives Gmail users a dedicated window, notifications, and quick access outside a web browser.
What is Mail+ for Gmail?
Mail+ for Gmail is a macOS productivity app for people who want Gmail in a dedicated desktop window instead of keeping it open in a browser tab. It helps users check, read, and manage Gmail messages more quickly with a focused app-style interface on Mac. The app includes convenience features such as unread badge counts, notifications, menu bar access, and support for working with more than one Gmail account in separate windows. It also offers viewing options such as dark mode switching, font size changes, and window opacity controls. This is a third-party Gmail client from Rocky Sand Studio Ltd., not a Google-made app, so it is best suited to users who prefer a lightweight Gmail companion rather than a full replacement for Apple Mail or a broad multi-provider email suite.

Safety overview
Status: Mostly safe
This app is a legitimate third-party Gmail client for Mac. Access to your Gmail account and email content is expected for its purpose, and it uses Google sign-in and Gmail access rather than local-only mail storage. Because it is not made by Google, use it only if you are comfortable granting a third-party app access to your email, and review the permissions you approve during sign-in. Removing the app will stop its notifications, menu bar access, and separate-window Gmail workflow, but it should not remove mail stored in your Google account.
Recommendation: Keep Mail+ for Gmail if you like using Gmail in a separate Mac app with desktop notifications and menu bar access. If you no longer use it, you can remove it without affecting your Gmail account itself, though you will lose its app-specific settings and convenience features.
