Ratings and reviews

Since sometime in August, I haven't received a single notification from the app. I've missed very important, time sensitive emails. This is not a problem with my settings. Notifications are turned on, I've checked twice. From what I can tell, when I open the app, it's only syncing once a day as well, around 11 pm? What a useless time. And I can't change that either. If this doesn't change with the 975.release update, I'll be forwarding all my Gmails to my OneDrive.

I agree with the others that there is a recent issue with the widget syncing. It will sink once you open it but won't send you live notifications or show any new emails that came in before that. I have tried the troubleshooting steps multiple times, notifications is on, sync is on, etc. It sounds like other people have tried too. I suggest Google review to see if there is a problem with the widget itself since multiple people are reporting the same issue.

Not a fan of Google as a company, but as an emailing app this is very solid. Easy customization, all swipe/tap motions are intuitive. Reading and sending emails goes well, and organizing is very easy, though in my opinion desktop is better for that. Not sure if it's a user error, but trusting certain senders' images doesn't trust them for more than one viewing session. I'm sure there are technically better apps but this one is accessible and serviceable for most purposes.
