Mnml

mnml helps you simplify Gmail and YouTube by hiding interface elements you do not need. You choose what stays visible; everything else can be turned off from one side panel.

HOW IT WORKS

Click the mnml icon in the Chrome toolbar to open the side panel. Turn mnml on or off globally, then adjust options for each site. Changes apply on the current tab without reloading when possible. Your choices are saved and can sync across devices when Chrome Sync is enabled.

GMAIL

Hide or simplify header and navigation chrome, including the logo, left sidebar labels (reveal on hover), list toolbar (reveal on hover), search bar, right add-on panel, top-right icons (reveal on hover), and footer links. Optionally move Compose to a floating button, use a minimal search bar, and limit how wide the inbox and reading pane can grow.

YOUTUBE

Hide top-bar controls (Create, notifications, voice search, logo), home feed category chips, Shorts entries and shelves, comments, related videos, and player end screens. Collapse the left guide until you hover the left edge or the Guide (hamburger) button; opening the full guide still works normally.

PRIVACY AND SCOPE

mnml runs only on mail.google.com and youtube.com. It does not read your email, messages, or watch history, and it does not send data to the developer’s servers. It stores your toggle preferences using Chrome extension storage.

mnml is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or sponsored by Google. Gmail and YouTube are trademarks of Google LLC.

If a hide stops working after a Google interface update, check for an extension update or report the issue to the developer.
