What makes you think there will be one? There is no native "official" Gmail app.
- jkincaid 16y agoGoogle submitted a native, official Google Voice application to the App Store in the first half of 2009. That application was rejected, though Apple told the press and FCC that it was still "pondering" whether or not to accept it (which was clearly bullshit). Last week I asked Google if they planned to resubmit/release the official app, and was told that they had nothing to announce at this time.
- pavs 16y agowhy would anyone in their right mind use a native gmail app when you can use it in to iphone mail client for multiple accounts.
- Timothee 16y agoThe Mail app doesn't follow the exact same behavior as the Gmail interface. I tend to prefer the mobile web interface for that reason (e.g. archiving, tagging, mark as spam work the same, whereas are somewhat broken through the Mail app). One could imagine that an official native app would follow the same "philosophy". (though the mobile web app is very well done, and can be used offline to a certain extent)
- xal 16y agoiOS4 actually has great support for gmail finally. You can enable archive instead of delete in the options now (may have to re-add the account). In iOS 4.1 they even changed the icon away from the trash can when you have this enabled. That being said, I miss support for priority inbox already.
