The latest operating system for iPhone — iOS 14 — brings several new features. One of the most talked features is the ability to change default email clients and browser apps on the iPhone. Users have been waiting for this feature for so long, and it’s finally here. So, in this article, I am going to show you how you can set Gmail as your default email app on iPhone in 2020.
While the default mail app on iPhone and iPad is good enough for casual users, it’s not optimal for users who have to deal with a lot of emails daily. There’s no smart organization of emails, and even the Smart Folder feature that is available on the macOS Mail app is not available on iPhone. That’s why I prefer to use the Gmail app on the iPhone.
- First, launch the Settings app on your iPhone. Scroll down to find Gmail, and tap on it.
As you can see, Apple has made it super-easy to change your default apps. That being said, currently, there’s a bug that reverts the default email app to Apple Mail when you restart the device. So, keep that in mind.
