This is fairly simple question, I hope. I want a button/text box where user can send email with suggestions to my email from within app. Is there any way to send email per above? I read some posts with a few suggestions, but nothing that seems to be an accepted way to achieve this fairly straightforward task. Any suggestions? I see several extensions that seem to provide this capability, but my understanding is version X doesn’t allow extensions to be used yet - is that actually the case, and does any one know when extensions will be added to the X version? Thanks in advance for any suggestions. I already have a fairly robust app put together in thunkable; my compliments to the creators for a really cool interface/language. Thanks Roger ---

Hi @rshepard You can refer to this [discussion](http://community.thunkable.com/t/phone-call-send-email/30800/2). And I think you can do it by only couple of steps on Thunkable X. Thanks, Joannie ---

I want a button/text box where user can send email with suggestions to my email from within app. Hi You can use “Open link” block from “Control” Set the text of open link to Join text: mailtio:Your Email here? subject= Any subject you like& body= Any body you like Note: All texts in lower case with no spacing. ---

You can use basically any backend to do this for you. Appscript is easy, sendgrid is easier, Make (integromat) is even easier ---
