I can't recall seeing ads on the Android app, but there are definitely ads in the web client. The ads must do a very good job of disguising themselves if you haven't noticed them. I have moved most of my email to ProtonMail. So much nicer paying for that from a company that respects me rather than using a free product from a company who has no other purpose than to drive ad revenue.
- sjroot 4y agoI’ve never seen ads. I believe the difference (and potential explanation as to why GP hasn’t seen any either) is that my account is through google workspace.
- lordgrenville 4y agoHappens in the Android app too, just not in the "Primary" tab. So annoying.
- travv0 4y agoI also haven't seen an ad on the Gmail web client in years. Maybe because I pay for extra storage through Google One? Edit: It looks like it doesn't happen in the primary tab and I have all the other tabs disabled which would explain it.
- l33tman 4y agoThe ads are in the android app if you select a "smart" tab, like the Social or Campaigns (and I pay for google one, still get those ads). Fortunately I'm never in those tabs on the mobile client.
