Do you mail yourself links to web pages that are important? (because if they go into your bookmarks, they will get lost forever…) This app allows you to do that in a single tap.
No more typing you email ID every time you need to send yourself a web page, image, video or anything from a browser. Just tap the icon and it sends the link to your inbox.
Works with all iOS apps that support extensions.

We've received a healthy bit of coverage, here's a few selected reviews to help you decide:
Mashable by Karissa Bell:
"The app is exceedingly simple but absolutely a must-have if you frequently (or even occasionally) email links to yourself as reminders for items you want to browse or share later."
CNET by Matt Elliott:
"If you share my disorganized reading habits, then I have an app to share with you: Mail to Self."
Time by Alexander Aciman

Great concept, needs work
Mdcosta911
Notes send formatted all wrong, makes it impossible to read, also not that much easier than emailing with the native iOS control. Also photos are eligible for mail to me? Needs some work/improvements. Great concept though.
to: 2 stars for the good idea +

If you read the Privacy Policy you might feel better. This is a great little app. Apple should just make this a feature. Done.
Nope. I don't think so.

This app should be called "Spam to Self". Nice concept but in actuality this app is nothing more than a scam to get your email address. Pretty dirty!
2 stars for the good idea...privacy concerns

Neat little app and useful indeed but why does this app actually need to send your email address and the selected links to a third party server??? It could easily use the iOS mail client without ANY need of a third party server. No wonder this is free...nothing is EVER really free. Keep that in mind. I deleted it right away. Regarding the "Privacy Policy" someone mentioned: Yeah, of course, I always trust small developers (or even bigger ones) who make privacy promises. Right. *LOL* I wonder how naive people can (still) be. Stupid question: How do you know they keep their promise? Any way to verify it?! *LOL* Yeah, right, I thought so.
Terrible

I believe this is a scam to collect email addresses and sell them to spammers I delegated after 2 minutes but may be too late Avoid
Won't send email

Can't get the initial verification email to come through to even start using this app.
Awesome timesaver

This thing is just perfect. It does one thing and does it well. I use it to send to my Omnifocus sync server account to add stuff quickly to my inbox. Fast.
Doesn't even accomplish its only task

It's happened multiple times. The email sent will contain no valuable information, especially the link to the article you're saving for later. Great idea. Poor execution.
