Gmail – Is Rapportive deprecated, discontinued

gmailrapportive

Rapportive has made itself an essential Chrome extension in my professional toolbox. Last February, the company was acquired by LinkedIn. Nevertheless the extension continued to function as it was designed.

Today, that no longer seems to be the case. Although Rapportive works in my Google Apps mail account, it no longer seems to work in my regular Gmail account. Instead of Rapportive's right panel, I get info provided by Google (Sender, "Add to circles," etc.), plus ads.

Additionally, although it is accessible via direct link, Rapportive no longer appears searchable in the Chrome web store.

Has the app been discontinued?

Best Answer

I had the same problem, but deleting the extension from my Chrome extension manager and reinstalling via the direct link seemed to do the trick.
