Re: [apple-iphone] Gmail app or Apple Mail app?

 

Hi Rich

I am using the Apple mail interface on my iPhone to service my gmail account.

When my wife sends me a message from her gmail account on her T-Mobile android phone, I get it right away. I do not have to wait for a 15 minute cycle.

Could the control be in my gmail preferences rather than on my iPhone?

I been fooling with both the Apple Mail app and Gmail and found one major difference

so far.

Most providers in the Apple Mail app like Gmail are only "fetched" every 15 minutes not

"pushed" like if your using the Gmail app. So not very good if you need to know right when

you get an email.

I looked and looked and Apple Mail would not let me change it to under 15 minutes, where

the Gmail app is instant.  If you keep digging thru the settings, even turning on "push" did not

push Gmail emails, 15 minutes is the quickest they will check.

I am sure this is good for many, just I get alarm alerts from my security cameras with pictures

so a 15 minute delay is a lot.  I guess I will use the Google Gmail app as I have no idea why

Apply delays it 15 minutes?

Have you tried the highest rated email app?

With 4.5 stars in iTunes, the Yahoo Mail app is the highest rated email app on the market. What are you waiting for? Now you can access all your inboxes (Gmail, Outlook, AOL and more) in one place. Never delete an email again with 1000GB of free cloud storage.
