Notion Mail shuts down on 22 September - what to export this week
By Brett Gavaghan, Founder of Adaptd · · Updated
Notion is closing its standalone email app on all platforms. Your emails stay in Gmail, but anything that lived only in the app - drafts, scheduled sends, snippets, auto-label rules - is deleted unless you save it by 21 September.
The short version
- Notion Mail, the standalone email app Notion launched in April 2025, closes on 22 September 2026 on all platforms and subscription tiers.
- Your email stays in Gmail, but drafts, scheduled emails, snippets with attachments and auto-label instructions are deleted.
- Save anything you need by 21 September, and decide whether auto-label rules become Gmail filters or a Notion agent.

What is happening to Notion Mail?
Notion Mail, the inbox app Notion launched in April 2025, closes on 22 September 2026. The web app, desktop app and iOS app all stop working on that date, on every subscription tier. Notion opened an export window on 25 June and the last day to save anything is 21 September.
Notion says email will continue to be handled through its AI connectors and agents, which can search, draft or send Gmail from inside Notion.
What will you lose, and what stays in Gmail?
Your sent and received email is not affected, because Notion Mail synced two ways with Gmail and it is all still in your Gmail account. What lives only in Notion Mail, and will be deleted, is the list Notion has published: drafts, scheduled emails, snippets plus any files attached to them, and auto-label instructions.
Notion's help page walks through moving drafts and scheduled emails back to Gmail and exporting snippets and label rules as text. If anyone on your team adopted Notion Mail, this is a small but time-boxed job. A sales rep with twenty scheduled follow-ups or a support lead with a library of snippet replies could lose real work on Monday without noticing until they go looking for it.
What should your business export this week?
Send a short note to your team today asking who uses Notion Mail, and have each person check the four items above. The exports take minutes. If your business relies on the auto-label rules, decide now whether they get rebuilt in Gmail filters or handed to a Notion agent.
Standalone AI apps come and go quickly at the moment. The habit to build is knowing what data lives only inside a tool before you make it part of a daily workflow.
