Customer Reviews

• Pretty good

  by bravokilo85

  No major complaints. Not that much better than the other email client, but works well in its own right.

• It's Gmail!

  by BlahBlahPooHa

  What more can I say? It's a functional gmail app and it works great.

• Excellent email app

  by Newbie G girl

  This is user friendly and set up similarly to other apps for email. Wish we could create folders from the apps. If you can it's not easy to find. Overall I'm very satisfied with the app.

• Great app

  by Breezie33

  I like the improvements

• Awesome & fast access!

  by Jojo123567

  Nice app

• Great App

  by Ketu A

  Very easy to use. Well organized.

• Switch from Vertical to Horizontal

  by cpevans

  Love the app - so much better than Apple's mail app. However, it drives me crazy that the screen doesn't automatically resize when switching from vertical to horizontal view. I have to press the back button, then reenter an email while holding the phone horizontally in order to have it fill the whole screen. Switching never works.

• I like it

  by Redneckgal78

  Cool!!!!!!!!

• Great App

  by Sycoactive

  Great App what's next.

• Wonderful!

  by ShindoThePickle

  A few days ago, I downloaded this just to try it, and I can just say that it is so much better than the stock mail app! And, I haven't noticed any issues so far. Totally recommend it!

• Amazing app

  by Tarek ABDEL ghany

  Really amazing and emails arrive instantly even before the web browser

• gmail is fab

  Great app

• Great app

  by Gary Grogan

  Just sorry it took so long for me to try it!

• Slow and sometimes freezes

  by Ksnwvsidk

  I have been a dedicated user of this app since I entered the smartphone world. But I don't know why... It's SO slow- regardless of my connection. I do enjoy the layout of this app- it seems to function like it would on your computer's web browser, but I have had it freeze on multiple occasions when composing a message and the wait time for new messages to load is simply not competitive in comparison to other mail apps. Google, the time has come- please fix your app.

• Great App

  by Cardog_2

  I use this for all my personal email and as a backup

• What an excellent app!

  by OscarUNT

  I have no problems or issues ever!!

• It's alright.

  by Marin2215

  I like the email sorting but it's missing the banners and alerts that I thought were standard of a real iPhone application.

• Mark as read needs a shortcut

  by Smithfamily42

  I wish I could move the mark as read option up. I use that feature a lot and don't like to use the drop down menu.

• Gmails Awesome

  by Coco girly 11

  It's cool how they now categorize emails by subject matter (promotions, etc) plus Google is the bomb so there ya go

• Missing some features

  by 911 in SC

  Works better than the factory mail server, but definitely missing some features.

• Could be better

  by tapdefene

  I expect more from you.

• Good basic app

  by Cmcmahan

  I use this app all the time and for the most part and very pleased with it. I use it for my school email account and it's nice to be able to keep business and work emails separate. One thing I don't like is that you can't turn off the conversation thread like you can on the desktop version. Minor detail, but I don't like that feature. Another thing that is missing is being able to see the contacts. I have a contact list created on-line - why won't it pull from that. We are also using gmail through apps for education so I can't see our district contact list like I can when I'm on-line. I also can't use my groups. If contacts, and groups could be added that would make this an even better app.

• Good

  by William Angel

  It is a good email program. It's con that is scans your email content, and displays ads related to the content. It sometimes crashes.

• Gmail

  by Fury239

  Decent app

• Iove it!!

  Good and fast very good!!

• Hi

  by Mostafa9977

  Very good

• Thanks

  by Mustapha Elbakai

  Good job it Will be better if we Can attach a file when sending mail

• IOS blows

  by HateIOS

  Why not just take a perfectly good app and ruin it... More reason to want to shoot iPhone Forced to use it for work!

• Frustrating

  by murich

  The conversation view is annoying, to say the least, and I have missed important emails because they get lost in the conversation view. It would also be nice if unread emails would pop out more. I love the desktop version of gmail. Unfortunately, for someone who uses gmail app for business there is no real alternative to this gmail app right now, especially not if you depend on labels. I have tried them ALL, and they are ALL missing at least one important component, usually labels, or have bugs.

• awesome app

  by Jer263825

  This is one of the better Mail apps that I have downloaded and used. Awesome!

• Great

  by Jayj305

  What a great app

• Gmail is main in my iPhone

  by Neko San

  Gmail app is used by me as a major

• Google is as usual stellar

  by Resfl

  I sincerely hope the legal animosities are not spilling over here. Google is a top notch software producer. Stabile, intuitive and cleanly designed UI; all accurately describe Google software. Regardless of platform their work exhibits the highest level of quality, much the same as Apple, they have that in common, at least.

• its okay.....

  by Andrewduke

  when you are used to the desktop, than the ipad version would obviously be outperformed a bit... but then again.... for on the go it works perfect!!

• Good email app

  by Anydww

  But I can't figure out the little stuff. How do I create a new folder? How do I import my contacts from other services? The simpler you could make the little things, the better. Think simple, like an old guy with a 12 inch black and white tv for starters.

• Keeps crashing

  by Shinano15

  I've been using this app for schoolwork and personal as well and it's rlly convenient!! But recently the app has been crashing whenever I open emails. I'm not sure if it's because I'm using a iPod or not but it's been crashing a log recently and I haven't been able to view it. Otherwise it's been good!

• Perfect App

  by Lolgitta have

  It does exactly what an app needs to do and more!

• Good but...

  by Every other nickname is taken1

  Everytime i open a search window or compose an email, the bottom half of my screen is left blank and I have to restart app to get full screen again

• Awesome

  by Ahmed Nabil bauomy

  The greatest

• What else do i need

  by Sirbek006

  It is an easy to use app. Really user friendly. The only problem i faced so far is when i want to send a photo, i can attach it just by openning the app. It would be better to put a gmail icon when you are at the gallery and selecting the picture

• Gmail App.

  by Mr. Cruzin.

  Superb App!

• Great app!!

  by jduran

  I love that I can send from email address that I have forwarded to this account. Makes it very convenient. I like it better than apple's standard mail client.

• Formatting not available yet // No ability to attach dropbox

  by Richard Haralson

  REally support people when is this app going to get some ability to do some formatting. I get tired of starting something in Evernote and copy/paste it into gmail app. App still better than apple mail but needs work. Hey engineers take a look at the interface of Evernote. It would be nice to be able to have bullets and formatting in typing mail. It doesn't see too hard, If I start something in Evernote and copy/paste it into gmail app, i can continue the bullets but I have to tediously start it in another app. App is still needing some cool features. This app is mile ahead of apple mail. I hate apple mail. Thanks for the ability to attach images. Better than apple mail. Next build a way that I can grab files in my dropbox app. That would then be pretty cool. Thank you

• Gmail app doesn't refresh and hangs

  by Sanjay_Nambiar

  I don't understand why this app won't refresh to show the latest emails in my inbox. I get the notification on my iPhone 5s lock screen that I've got Gmail. But when I open the app, that mail isn't visible in my Inbox. I have to open some other random email, close it, and then the Inbox refreshes to display the new email. That's kinda poor for Gmail. Also, this app hangs when you select the settings gear and fool around with settings, I couldn't cancel out of the screen. It just hangs on the settings screen and one can't go back to checking one's inbox ever. The app had to be deleted and reinstalled. This is again kinda lame for Gmail. Never had these issues on a desktop.

• Very organized!

  by IndianGuy1993

  I love the layout design that they have for this app. Let's me prioritize my mails, so I get notifications for my important mails only. Definitely recommend this for any gmail users!

• It's great

  by Da ted

  Better then polio!

• Better than native email app

  by TheGatt

  It's really no comparison. Apple's mail app is so awful that literally anything is better. That said, the app has issues that need fixing. It takes too long to initially load and it's difficult to retrieve archived messages. Other than that, it's leaps and bounds better than the stock email app.

• So far so good

  by MsJaszy

  Just downloaded so we'll see how it goes.

• App Crashes and Freezes

  by Janky2

  iPhone 4S user. don't know how long but about six months ago Gmail app crashed and freezes now on a regular basis. Also, I can't stand the important filter for google. I have tried to turn it off. It messes up incoming mail when trying to integrate with Mail app on Computer. I appreciate the service, but these things are causing me to look else where for email.

• Great app!

  by Ire55

  Took a little getting used to after using a laptop for so long, but it's smooth and easy to use after some practice

• Didn't have iOS 5 edition.

  by Number VII

  I required a iOS 5 edition , but it works great on iOS 7.

• GMail for iphone

  by Jet Bean

  Handy!

• Crashes constantly

  by Laceyap

  This app is great besides constant freezing and crashing. Don't try to write an email on this app, it will freeze and eventually crash. Thought I could at least read an email, not so anymore! Again, freezing and then crashing.

• Excellent for the iPad

  by ComputerGuy22

  Finally someone got the threading down. I can look at my gmail and follow a conversation. Thank you!

• Good job hank

• So, the hangouts-unread message thing

  by Dominique Devereaux

  Are you ever planning on fixing that weird thing that happens when you get an unread message notification in your inbox for a hangout, but you can't make it go away because there's no way to access your chats in the gmail app? Shouldn't have to log into a desktop computer to make that notification go away...this has been a problem since hangouts was introduced in gmail, which is a while ago.

• Good addition to mail app

  by cm3282

  I have different emails, so it's a great to compartmentalize them.

• Good stuff

  by Stevenoctopus

  It works with my school and gmail accounts well!

• It is awesome

  by Kaykay45678900965125

• Deleted my Gmail app

  by Imshaken

  Gmail was great untiI I grew tired of the crashes, and spam emails targeted with google's assistance. My solution? Delete the app. I'll try hotmail, yahoo or something else. A sincere thank you to Google for your email offering even if it didn't work out. g

• Pretty good

  by 88problems

  Must-have app on iOS, but unfortunately the UI has been slow/unresponsive lately and freezing a lot

• Useful, easy to use

  by NehaGupta

  Great app. My day doesn't start without going through my emails and the app makes it soo much easier

• Great alternative to apple's mail app.

  by paxildanny

  I really enjoy using the gmail app. It feels fast, responsive and clean. I switched over to a dedicated app because I liked the overall design that gmail offers. It feels less cluttered, subject lines appear clearer and easier to read. I do not like the login time (a brief one or two seconds) at times it feels too long. Overall, I highly recommend this app.

• Great app when not frozen

  by rbell

  It freezes too much. It's glitchy. I have to close it frozen once a day. I expect more from google. The app looks great and is better than the apple mail app but it needs to be fixed; it's embarrassing.

• Google apps are great for the iphone

  by daveedo

  After using only apple's default apps such as Mail, Maps, and safari, I am amazed i waited so long to download the google equivalent apps. Your google account is tracked through all the google apps making it incredibly easy to use.

• Excelente

  by e167272

  Muy ligera es intuitiva, la recomiendo ampliamente!

• Google and its ways of app making

  by J_BOI@11233

  This app really helps a lot. It would be more helpful though if a google calendar app could be made...

• Far better than the default mail service

  by omerta_184

  Title says it all. Faster, cleaner, more organized.

• Great

  by Soraroarz

  Amazing app gmail is awesome

• Another Google Dissapointment

  by Jejohnsr

  Well what can I say - Google use to be user friendly. Now they are just trying to get users.

• Great mail

  by Rsharde

  It's gmail. What more need be said? Much better interface than the apple mail app that comes packaged with the iPhone. Much happier with my iPhone as a result.

• Nice app

  by Nicole Bordwell

  I have to keep different emails and this app helps manage them all. I love it!! It separates the Junk and primary. Get it

• Best Way To Do Email

  by LoveBlackFridays

  All my accounts at the palm of my hand in one app! Never miss an email thanks to Gmail! I love it!

• Best email program

  by 72DAS

  This Gmail app is far superior to anything that comes with my iPad, iPhone or Mac. It helps to sort the messages into various categories. Plus it starts quickly without the delay experienced on my MacBook Pro.

• Gmail's smarter than I am

  by Jonadale

  Sorts everything in nanoseconds.

  by RossHealea97

  Love it more than the iPhone email app! It's really convenient to have google+ as well as all of the google apps with it. Highly recommend.

• Amazing

  by Lucky you lucky brand

  The best app ever

• What happened?

  by Aj0486

  Used to love the app. Something happened to where the labels of notifications and promotions went missing. So I can't even see where my mail is, or if I have any in that category unless I click all mail. I'm confused.

• It's Gmail

  by WowSoColin

  It's the same quality you expect from Google services. Ditch gmail in the Apple Mail app and use this one for greater good.
