Since updating to iOS 11 and using the gmail app, when I get a new email it has the badge number but when I go in and look at those emails, the badge doesn't go away unless I restart the phone. It always looks like I have new email when I don't. Very annoying. Does anyone know of a fix or do I have to wait until gmail fixes it. Also, I cannot seem to find support for the gmail app anywhere.

This is webmail ( G mail account ) icon , & if you go to the settings in gmail and disable both POP account and IMAP account as you posted in your original question , problems will come in IMAP account , so don't do any changes in web mail , the settings are by default .Mail application is just configured to gmail services .

I'm pretty sure it's using IMAP. When I right-click a mailbox in the navigation sidebar > Get Account Info > Summary, I can see that the incoming server is "imap.gmail.com" and outgoing server is "smtp.gmail.com". Also: the folders I've enabled IMAP for, are the ones that appear in the Mail app.

What I don't understand is the difference between my gmail password and an "app password." I don't have an app password for iOS mail, at least not the I know of. Do I need two different passwords now for gmail when I use apple mail? And do I get the app password when using my iPhone or is it something I get by logging in to my gmail account from my Windows laptop.

I just signed in to my gmail account. It shows my laptop and my iPhone as registered devices. It says my phone is signed in via Safari. But there's nothing about Apple Mail, an app password, or about any other iOS app for that matter. It only shows Thunderbird as "Third-party apps with account access".

There also is some discussion of turning on 2FA. I don't have it turned on because it requires that Google be able to send me a text message or call me. I travel outside the US a lot, and they won't text me to my foreign cell phone. I have the same problem with Capitol One. There is no way to login because their 2FA only works with a US cell or landline number. I was hoping there was some way to use gmail on my iPhone without 2FA, as I can do on my Windows machine.

I was getting a message that said "... mail server "imap.gmail.com" not responding..." and my gmail account was not syncing mail after several days. I tried several simple approaches like restarting mail app, and restarting the phone. Then I tried deleting the gmail account in the settings app. When I went back to re-add the account using the automatic Google menu create account option, I started getting weird results. After entering my gmail account and password for a split second the "mail, contacts, calendar, notes option panel shows up and then disappears and the menu of mail providers reappears without any explanation. I tried many times and get the same results. I am at a loss now as to how to add my gmail account to my mail app. I can obviously use the native gmail app, but I can't believe I am the only one with this problem. Any suggestions? (I was having this problem on my iPhone 6s before upgrading to iPhone X and latest iOS.)

I got the new iphone 13 PRO and setup the new phone and I have 6 gmail accounts in addition to my icloud account, and 4 of the gmail accounts are GSuites for business with my own company domains, and only 1 of the gmail accounts is working along with the icloud account. The other ones 1 gmail and 4 gsuites for business didn't load any messages and giving errors that the password is missing or incorrect. It doesn't let me go in and enter the password. I followed the other advice by restarting after upgrading from 15.0.2 to 15.1 since the phone shipped with 15.0.2 and it was still not working. This is very frustrating not having these work on apple mail. I was hoping to not have to use outlook for IOS but unless this works I am wondering what options I have. My businesses are run off my gsuites for business gmail accounts. Any help would be appreciated, wanted to resolve online myself instead of having to go into an apple store.

So google is not easy to call as there phone number doesnt support gmail questions...... But did shout out to the gmail community forum, awaiting responses.....btw i just returned an iphone pro 13 for screen issues and this is another

I don't see the point of letting the user select an archiving folder if instead the system is going to override that configuration and archive the message the way it's done in the gmail website. Apple could as well remove that option so it wouldn't be confusing (or fix it)

I have an issue with gmail not working on the mail app that comes with the the Iphone. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the mail and all the account settings. Once this was done it works for about an hour and then stops. If I load the gmail app it all works OK.

Yes I have the same issue. Gmail not coming through to my iphone email app inbox. Same behavior as described above - emails come through for about an hour then stop. Some emails came through to my 'all mail' folder, but not my 'inbox'. Junk mail comes through, but not my normal email. Settings are all correct. Tried deleting and reinstalling the gmail account. restarting phone. Hard resetting phone. Now I am busy restoring the software on the phone through itunes app on my desktop computer. Been on gmail support forums and now chatting with apple tech support for over 2 hours troubleshooting. Last resort is to restore the software. Huge mission for such a seemingly small issue. Hoping this works...

One day noticed there were MILLIONS of copies of notes made on my iPhone (sometimes many copies of one note, what joy) filling up my various gmails. Found out here (thank you apple support community) that if i go into settings>mail>accounts on my iphone and toggle the 'notes' button to 'off' in each of those accounts, it will stop sending copies to my gmail, huzzah! Also that terrifying warning comes up saying all those notes will be deleted from my phone. Gack.

In the last month or so SOME of my new gmail has gone only to the ALL MAIL folder and NOT to my INBOX on Google AND the Apple mail clients for macOS or iOS. I hadn't changed any settings in gmail or my Apple client apps, but I checked my filters on Google anyway. Nothing wrong. I asked Google forum. No help. The only change that I have made recently was to upgrade to Catalina on my laptop and desktop. So...I revoked permissions (removed my gmail from the Apple clients) for ten days and the problem went away. All my incoming gmail seemed to go to INBOX as long as I was accessing my gmail only through Google's own web interface or via the Google app on my iPhone and iPad. But as soon as I added my gmail account back to my laptop and desktop Apple client, the problem started back up. Help! I hate the Google interfaces and I want to aggregate my email addresses all under one client. :)

Great, I'll try that IMAP solution. Thanks so much!! I am convinced this is somehow tied to upgrading to Catalina as I've been using the Apple mail client with my gmail address for YEARS without a problem, and the problem started around the time I upgraded my laptop and desktop to Catalina.

When accessing my gmail through Safari or the Gmail App, the Inbox reads "No offline message" instead of listing my inbox messages. Apparently, something is telling the program that it is not ONLINE. I CAN go to other sites with wifi and 3G. Why does it think the inbox is OFFLINE?

I do as you do. My notes are on the native ipad app as is the calendar. But, I thought the calendar synced in iCloud. I think I'll go ahead and try deleting and reinstalling gmail. Sounds like it shouldn't have anything to do with the native Notepad which I would not want to lose.

Forgive me but my email account skills are sketchy at best - For years I have had a gmail "family" account and a "personal" account where I rent the domain yearly and have all of that mail forwarded through the gmail account (I get roughly 1/2 emails addressed to personal, 1/2 to the family) did this originally for spam support - then it ends up in my outlook365 desktop client at home. This 365 client is configured with the gmail IMAP account. Things usually work okay. There might be a better way to do this Lol? Here is the problem: Since outlook is where I set dates and appointments I am hoping there is a way to sync those to the gmail account so ultimately those same reminders will show up on my iphone. Does this make sense? Can someone provide some guidance here thanks - Bill

I've noticed that email blasts I send out that are opened in the gmail iPhone app have a wildly different design compared to on my desktop computer or the generic mail apple app. I've played around with many different design options in squarespace to try and see if it was simple to fix and I'm stumped. Has anyone else noticed this issue? I've attached screenshots for reference:

After creating email using template module method email newsletter is not being responsive in iphone gmail app and not correctly being responsive in android gmail app.

hubspot is adding their own css, this might the causing the issue in gmail app. see below screenshot.

Gmail does resize the contact photos and will only appear as the small photo in the top right when a call is received. Simply taking a photo on your I phone and assigning it to a contact will only revert to the small photo in seconds as soon as the phone syncs with gmail server. Put your contacts on your phone and don't sync with gmail if you want full screen contact photos to display during calls.
