Add your profile to your email signature

Every email you send is a chance to share your profile. Build a signature once, then drop it at the bottom of your emails. It carries your name, your link, and your contact details to everyone you write to. It's no trouble.

Before you start

You need a profile to build a signature from. The signature pulls your name, link, phone, and website straight from it, so a finished profile gives you the best starting point.

You build the signature in NoTrouble, then paste it into your own email app. That last paste happens once, inside Gmail, Outlook, or Apple Mail. You stay in control of where it goes.

Build an email signature with your link

This is the path everyone uses. You design the signature, copy it, and paste it into your email app.

Open the Email Signature tool.
On the Details tab, select Apply next to "Pre-fill from your profile". This fills in your name, email, phone, and website.
Add anything else you want, like your position or a phone number.
Want a photo? Open the Avatar tab and select Use this to pull in your profile photo, or upload one.
Watch the Live preview on the right update as you go. That's exactly what people will see.

Your work saves on its own as you type, so there's nothing to press to keep it.

Copy your signature into Gmail, Outlook, or Apple Mail

One Copy signature button works for every email app. It copies the full design, colors and all, ready to paste.

In the Email Signature tool, check the Live preview looks right.
Select Copy signature (the blue button under the preview).
You'll see "✓ Copied to clipboard". Your signature is now on your clipboard.
Open your email app's signature settings (steps for each app are below).
Paste with Ctrl + V on Windows, or Cmd + V on a Mac.

Paste keeps the fonts, colors, and your photo. Then save inside your email app, and you're set.

Add my profile to a Gmail signature

Gmail keeps signatures in its settings. Paste the one you copied into the signature box.

Copy your signature from the Email Signature tool first (see the steps above).
In Gmail on a computer, select the gear icon at the top right, then See all settings.
Stay on the General tab and scroll down to the Signature section.
Select Create new, give it a name like "Work", and select Create.
Select inside the signature box and paste with Ctrl + V or Cmd + V.
Under Signature defaults, pick this signature for new emails and for replies.
Scroll to the bottom and select Save Changes.

Heads up: the Gmail app on your phone only allows plain text, so set this up on a computer. Your phone signature is separate and won't carry the photo or colors.

Put my link at the bottom of my Outlook emails

Outlook stores signatures in its settings too. The steps match in new Outlook and Outlook on the web.

Copy your signature from the Email Signature tool first.
In Outlook, select the gear icon at the top right, then View all Outlook settings.
Go to Mail, then Compose and reply.
Under Email signature, select + New signature and give it a name.
Select inside the editor and paste with Ctrl + V or Cmd + V.
Use the For new messages dropdown to make it your default.
Select Save.

Now every new email starts with your signature at the bottom.

Copy my signature into Apple Mail

Apple Mail on a Mac keeps signatures per email account. One setting trips people up, so we'll handle it.

Copy your signature from the Email Signature tool first.
In Mail, choose Mail in the top menu bar, then Settings, then the Signatures tab.
In the left column, select the email account you send from.
Select the add button (the plus) below the middle column and name your signature.
Important: uncheck Always match my default message font. Leave it on and Apple Mail strips your colors and photo on paste.
Select inside the right-hand preview and paste with Cmd + V.
Close Settings. Apple Mail saves on its own.

When you write a new email, your signature shows up. If it doesn't, pick it from the Signature dropdown near the top of the message.

My signature pasted as plain text or lost its colors

This almost always comes down to one box in Apple Mail. Open Mail, then Settings, then Signatures, and uncheck Always match my default message font. Delete what you pasted, then paste again. The colors and photo will stick this time.

In Gmail and Outlook, paste straight into the signature box, not into a plain-text field. If the design still drops, copy it fresh from the Email Signature tool and try once more. A fresh copy fixes most paste problems.

My photo is missing from the signature

Your photo travels with the copy, but only if it's set in the tool first. Open the Avatar tab in the Email Signature tool, select Use this to pull in your profile photo, or upload one. Then copy the signature again and paste it back in. The new copy carries the photo.

On phones, the Gmail and Outlook apps drop images from signatures. That's their limit, not a mistake on your end. Set your signature up on a computer for the full look.

Can I sync straight to Gmail without copying?

For most accounts, not yet. The one-time Copy signature and paste is the way to go today, and it works in every email app.

If your account has the feature, you'll see a Connect Google button next to Copy signature in the Email Signature tool. Connecting Google lets us push the signature into Gmail for you, and keep it fresh on its own. If you don't see that button, it says "coming soon" for your account. Copy and paste in the meantime. You lose nothing.

I don't see my changes when I paste

Your signature saves as you edit, but the copy grabs whatever the Live preview shows at that moment. If a recent change is missing, look at the preview first. Once it shows the change, select Copy signature again to grab the latest, then paste it back into your email app.
