I've been thinking about giving that app a try. How is it in comparison to the Outlook app? I really like the Outlook app, but as always, I've returned to using the native Mail app.

Not sure as I haven't used Outlook. I like the features, though I do miss the VIP of the built in app. GMail has its own sort of thing which takes some learning but works well to reduce notifications.

I just use iCloud. I have an ISP email address and they have an app with near instant push notifications if I need that, but for now I just forward it to iCloud. I like to limit the number of internet accounts I have. Since I don't use other Google services, I'm not signing up for Gmail to get all their other gifts.

Haven't had any issues with iCloud, but I'm not a heavy email user.

Not to change the subject. But, I just installed that new Email app (as per @robertk328), on my iPad and iPhone.
Not bad at all. It might actually be better than the Outlook app...
