“Done with Google — Spyware that feeds your info to their planet destroying AI” — ★☆☆☆☆“AI Spy — Not only is google completely spineless and on its knees to please the idiot in the Oval Office, mislabeling one of the Great Lakes just to hope he bestows his golden dribble on them, but they spy on your emails to feed AI on your stolen data.

Bizarre breakage, please have your QA add a test for this common flow.” — ★★☆☆☆“Latest version is jumpy — With the last update or two, when you select an email(I.e. select it and not open it) the screen jumps. It’s quite annoying if you are used to selecting several emails at once to delete or archive.” — ★☆☆☆☆

“ads — it's atrocious you put ads in this app at all, let alone to disguise them as emails. do better” — ★☆☆☆☆“Ads and out of order emails — The emails are out of order based on date and I have ads in my inbox. Even Google ai suggested I use a different one. Yall are annoying and evil it’s sad” — ★☆☆☆☆“gmail loves spam — Just de-Google yourself already this app keeps letting in spam mail and flagging it does nothing.
