Help with Email

[Hvacmanjc]

Hello everyone. Kind of somewhat new to Android and Gmail. I want to use a different email app other than Gmail. I know to use an Android phone, you have to sign in with Gmail. My question is, if using an email app other than Gmail how do I stop the notifications from coming to my phone through Gmail? I am getting Gmail notifications as I should and also MyMail notifications. I just wanted to stop the Gmail email notifications. Thanks in advance for your help.

In the gmail app, slide the left panel out, scroll down to settings, then select your account. There's a check box for notifications, uncheck that.

Further more, if you just don't want to use the gmail app at all, you can just disable it all together in the settings app.

Here's some screenshots to help disable notifications in the gmail app.
