Remember that fantastic native Gmail app that Google was on the verge of releasing? They’ve done gone and released it, and it’s available now as a free download for your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch running iOS 4 or above.
We’ve yet to check it out, but here are some of the features in the App Store description:
– Receive notification badges for new messages
– Read your mail with threaded conversations
– Organize your mail by archiving, labeling, starring, deleting, and reporting spam
– Keep track of important messages with priority inbox
– Auto-complete contact names as you type
– Send and receive attachments
– Search through all your mail
As someone who has tried all the alternatives and made a conscious decision to live in Gmail on my Mac, a native app is fantastic news. I can’t wait to give it a try.
