About DashClock Gmail+ Extension
DashClock Gmail+ Extension integrates DashClock Widget with a popular email service Gmail, providing instant access to Gmail messages directly from device's lock screen. Unlike DashClock built-in Gmail extension that displays the number of unread messages, Gmail+ extension displays the number of new messages, just like the actual Gmail application does in its notifications. In addition, Gmail+ extension also displays the sender and subject of the new message, providing a much richer experience compared to the build-in extension.
Other improvements over DashClock built-in Gmail extension include:
• Clicking Gmail+ notification opens the contents of the actual message, instead of the contents of the entire inbox
• Support for persistent notification, providing quick access to Gmail directly from device's lock screen even if there are no new messages
This extension relies on notification access functionality, and requires explicitly granting notification access through system security settings, as well as enabling notifications in Gmail application settings. For convenience notification access can also be configured through DashClock extension settings.
In order to add Gmail+ Extension to DashClock Widget:
• Launch DashClock Widget settings
• Select Add Another Extension option
• Select Gmail+ from the list of available extensions
In order to configure notification access:
• Launch DashClock Widget settings
• Select settings button of DashClock Gmail+ Extension
• Select Notification access option in extension's settings
• Tick a checkbox next to DashClock Gmail+ Extension
DashClock Gmail+ Extension requires Gmail http://goo.gl/XJX8K3 and DashClock Widget http://goo.gl/9U0MyV applications installed and running.
DashClock Gmail+ Extension is an open source project, you can check out its source code at http://goo.gl/jveozD.

For some reason it double counts every email if there's more than one? If it says 6 I know I have 3 emails.

For whatever reason the subject underneath the sender's name disappears after a while on my lockscreen. When it does the info displayed looks off because the sender's name is not centered with respect to the Gmail icon.

Doesn't check for unread messages. Most of my mail is non-notification in the Gmail tabs. Even so, marking something unread in Primary doesn't activate the extension.

Of the all the Gmail Dashclock widgets I tried, this one is my favorite. However just two small complaints/requests. Firstly for some reason even with the box checked for it, when I have just one email I can't see the subject, just the From. Secondly instead of "Inbox (5)" or what, it'd be nice to show my email address as well, useful in case it were lost. Overall though, great app.

Getting 'error' next to my gmail icon. EDIT: i'm using the official dashclock widget. gmail+ has notification acces and i also put public access on. It seems it works but only with new mails, while my official gmail app and the gmail website say for example 2 unread mails this app says i've got 0, only new mails are getting in. I'd like it to be synchronized with my actual gmail account. Except for that, it works fine. I switched because the official gmail dashclock plugin displays all my unread mail, including the social and advertising folders.

I like this app but, like with one of the other reviewers, it doubles the count of messages from the number of messages I actually have. I can't work out how to correct this. Can someone help please?
