which is better to use.the google app or the mail icon on iphone4.i see that with the google app theirs no way to sync notes or is there?if so somebody tell me how.does the google app do push?
I just set up my gmail through the exchange slot on my iPhone. For me I was not a really big fan of using a third party app when the native solution works just fine.
If you have a Mac, set up notes to sync via IMAP and Gmail, and you'll have an up to date copy on both your phone and your computer at all times. The Google app only sends you push notifications when you receive mail. If you're invested into the Google environment and use Gmail labels, filters, starring, etc., use the Google app for push notifications and Gmail web app.
I like gmail more and more, especially the functionality of tags. But, I run a few mailboxes, so unifying them is important. It was one of the barriers to adopting to an iPhone from my old BB. So I use the Mail app.
