2023-05-24	Gl*****	This app use to be good but not for a couple years. First problem is contact list disappeared. I can see my contacts only when i start typing a name in the “TO:” space….then all the names starting with that letter show up. I’ve seen others complain about this. Even more frustrating is if I open an email I can’t get out of it to go to another email. I have to back out of the app clear the memory and sign on again to see the other emails. I wrote to the “help” a long time ago and never got a reply. This has been going on for a couple years. Very disappointing. It’s not my device as i have bought new ones and it still happening. Tried using a different GMAIL app and same thing happened plus they wanted me to pay to have the advertisements go away.

2019-03-06	ip*****	Used to be a flawless app but stopped working couple of years ago (end of 2017). I tried uninstalling and installing the app several times without positive results. Login is an impossible task. On my ios tablet login just keeps trying indefinitely without a prompt response while on my ios phone gives me an incoherent response that states the device doesn't allow JavaScript when actually it has it on!. Don't even bother anymore.

2017-09-13	Cl*****	This app worked great for several years But then it hung up when I tried to log off. I had to quit app to get out of it. Then after that it hangs when trying to open gmail. Then once again I have to quit the app in order to proceed. As I said the app worked great for several years on all my iOS devices. But gradually it has stopped working even though I've reinstalled it several times in three different devices. I also refreshed my gmail passwords hoping that would help. When working it is a 5 star. But now it's 0 star. If they responded to my emails I'd give them a break, but they don't.

2016-12-17	Ze*****	I've been using this app for about two years. My requirements are pretty basic, and I have not had any problems at all. Using an iPad3. Good job.
