Slow google mail download

I too have several googlemail accounts and a btinternet account which download just as rapidly as they always have. However, my main googlemail account downloads the emails very slowly onto all Apple devices - MacBook Pro and Air, iPads and iPhones. Signing in to the account in Safari does not have any of these problems.

I have force quit and cleared cache on an iPhone, updated all devices to latest software (MONTEREY 12.5 & IOS 15.6), uninstalled and reinstalled the account from Mail and got no help from googlemail - I had 12.5 Gb stored in 15Gb of storage which I had paid to increase to 100Gb.

Welcome!


This sounds like contacting Google Support first is the more effective action. Only one account out of several being slow suggests something afoot at the source—Google. Were all Google downloads slow, then checking for Apple issues first would be logical.


For us to continue here, please tell us if you are accessing Gmail from Apple's Mail client or from a web page. If the latter, what browser? A web search shows you do not have a unique issue, and that Chrome has been implicated in gmail slowness. Go figure.


You found the forums section for asking how to use the forum software and for reporting forum bugs. It get few views. I'll leave this here for a bit longer but we really to ask the mods to move it to a more active forums where others with similar Google experience are hanging out.

It really helps new users with navigation here but Apple sees fit to bury it two levels under the ASC home page.
