If you wish to disable tracking of e-mail pixels, there is a simple basic step you can take to avoid trackers and stop your email from automatically loading images. You won’t be able to avoid all of the trackers that can hide in your email this way, but it should help stop many of them.

Disable image autoloading in Gmail:

  1. Click on the gear icon in the upper right corner to access your settings
  2. In the “General” tab (the first one), scroll down to “Images”
  3. Select “Ask before displaying external images”
  4. Scroll down to the bottom of the page and click on “Save Changes”

Note that this will also turn off Gmail’s dynamic email feature, which makes emails more interactive.

Disable image autoloading in Microsoft Outlook (Office 365):

  1. Click on “File” > “Options”
  2. In the “Outlook Options” window, select “Trust Centre”
  3. Click on the “Trust Centre Settings” button
  4. Check the boxes labelled “Don’t download pictures automatically in standard HTML messages or RSS items” and “Don’t download pictures in encrypted or signed HTML email messages.” You can make a number of exceptions to the first item if you want by checking the boxes underneath it.

Disable image autoloading in Microsoft Mail:

  1. Click on the gear icon on the bottom left
  2. From the “Settings” menu on the right, select “Reading pane”
  3. At the bottom of the menu on the right, turn off “Automatically download external images and style formats except S/MIME Mail” and “Automatically download external images and style formats for S/MIME Mail”
  4. If you are using Mail with more than one email account, make sure “Apply to all accounts” is checked.

Disable image autoloading in Apple Mail:

  1. Select “Mail” > “Preferences”
  2. Click on the “Viewing” tab
  3. Uncheck “Load remote content in messages”

Disable image autoloading in Android iOS Gmail:

  1. Tap on the three lines in the upper left corner
  2. Scroll down to and select “Settings”
  3. Tap on the email account that you want to work with
  4. Scroll down to and select “Images”
  5. Tap on “Ask before displaying external images”

Google has added the setting to the iOS version of Gmail as well. Here’s how to disable it on the iPhone client:


  1. Open Gmail for iOS, tap the hamburger menu in the upper left, and scroll down to settings
  2. Tap the account you want to personalize, and tap into “Images”
  3. Switch from “Always display external images” to “Ask before displaying external images”

Note that for those wishing to do this on Gmail’s mobile client, it appears it will only work for personal accounts and not enterprise ones managed through G Suite, for now.

Disable image autoloading in Android iOS Gmail:

  1. Tape on “Settings” > “Mail”
  2. Find the “Messages” section and toggle off “Load Remote Images”
