Gmail - Email by Google App Reviews

Had not kept up with other cutting edge email applications. Need to add the ability to do more by swiping messages than a single option.

This app works fairly well on my iPhone and is simple to navigate. Connects well adapts to other apps and allows for seem less work.

Gracias a dios existe Google

Easy to use - performs well. Stable. Highly reliable. Almost invisible like all good infrastructure.

One for Android wasn’t that bad but one for iPhone is the worst email app. The most irritating is that it groups emails with no any logic and there’s no way to turn it off in the app. If I have a conversation with multiple emails I never can find one I need.

Love gmail greatest app ever. Google thanks for changing the world . We owe you!

With the latest update Google still thinks people dont need to print emails. With the latest update, now Google really wants you to load Chrome. It keeps asking what browser you want to run. If you try to deselect “ask me each time” it will ignore your selection. It appears that Google is making this worse each time it updates it.

LOve the new app for iPhone, it allows me to manage multiple Gmail accounts with the click of one button!

Update February 2018 Phone number & address hyperlinks function again! Update July 2017 Recent updates lost short-lived ability to dial phone numbers directly from email message. Back to tedious copy-paste-call. The reply suggestions are interesting though. Saves about 10 seconds but Im not sure how I feel knowing that google is parsing and understanding all of my email content. Update. All of a sudden, I can now edit text in forwarded messages...I had not updated the app, this functionality just appeared on its own...just like in googles map app the nearby traffic widget just stopped working on its own one day. Curious. Signatures still are not tying into my web gmail settings and are completely unusable for aliases and HTML formatted signatures...which I need for my business use. At least give this functionality to your paying customers! Also realizing how much I miss the reply & forward buttons at the top of the screen in gmail 4.x. Many improvements in gmail 5.x but they do not make up for lost features. Original review: BEWARE. gmail 5.x is simply rebranded inbox and lacks the same critical features, namely: -horrendous signature handling. No HTML signatures. No alias specific signatures. (fixed)-message forwarding limitations. Cannot edit forwarded message. Theres a longer list of reasons I hadnt switched from gmail 4.x to inbox but those are more preferences as opposed to critical requirements to do my work. The 5.x search improvement is nice but irrelevant since I can no longer use the gmail app for work so Im now searching for a new mail app for the first time since a native gmail app was introduced. Disappointed.

It’s great

Best email app for gmail. There is only 1 problem. You can’t select all and mark as read. If that was possible, I’d rate it 5 stars for sure. Seems like it should be a standard feature but what do I know...

This is an amazing app, just lately, I have had to go in , shut it down , and go in again. It’s freezing randomly, how is this fixed?

The app will prompt you repeatedly not to use 5 or more accounts. I’ve found that to be right-on advice. I had 3 Gmail and two O365 and the freezing and pausing during use made the experience unbearable.

Use to be able to pick Safari and tel it not to ask ever again, but now it asks every single time I click on a web link in an email even though I have toggled that off.

I use gmail on all my devices.

This app is really useful and it’s fast! However, for some strange reason, you can’t toggle the “important” flag on a message here. In the tree on the LH side, there’s a filter so you can view messages that are marked as important, but what good does it really do if you can’t check that field on or off for a message? Seems like an oversight, and it’s been this way for years. I use the important field a lot to track messages that I need to deal with. If the app had this capability, I’d probably rate it 5 stars.

I can understand why a company would want to ask if, maybe, I’d rather use their browser when I open an email from inside their app. However every single time since the latest update is way past old already. Each time, it pops up. Each time, I make a selection and tell it not to ask every time - only to have this cycle repeat with the next link. You really need to fix this so it quits asking, it’s rendering an otherwise great app very frustrating and near useless.

An email client should be simple and have a reverse chronological sequence of emails they can be read and filed away or discarded easily. I just moved from Microsoft because they’re trying to be something more than an email client, now I’m having similar but different issues with Gmail. I also tried Gmail inbox and it is overly cumbersome.

Muy buena app

I really like to be able to use my Gmail Calendar for family events. I use color coding and it integrates with my Outlook calendar for business. The color coding let’s me see who in the family has the event, daughter-ballet, son-football, Bible Study and do on. I am sure there will be more exciting things to come from Gmail calendaring.
