Q: iPhone 6. Add my Google account. I briefly get to see that all the services are 'green', & I know it's logged on to Google (email about new device), but the account doesn't appear on the phone. Why?

I have an iPhone 6. I want to see my Google calendar(s) on it. I add my Google account. I briefly get to see that all the services have 'green' buttons, but then I'm returned to the 'Add Account' screen. I know it did log on to Google, because (the first time) they sent me an email about a login from a new device. But the account doesn't appear on the phone. Why?

 

I've done this quite a lot of times, with the same result each time, and I've searched the web for answers - I can't find anything similar.

 

(By the way, this support / discussions has a silly UI: I had to type all my question in a tiny box, then I had to create a log in - & find my question has been thrown away. Now I get this box to enter more question!)
