Anyone use or prefer Samsung mail to Gmail? If so, why?

Thanks

I started using Samsung email a few weeks ago...I was using Google Inbox but they're doing away with that and I tried Gmail but didn't like having ads mixed in with my emails so I decided to try the Samsung route. So far I'm liking it, it has a dark mode and doesn't have ads... It just works.

I like the gmail spam reporter. It automatically unsubscribes at the same time.

Samsung email has better UI aesthetics. Conversation view and landscape mode works great.

I use Samsung email and have for the past several years for both my Hotmail and Gmail accounts.

I prefer all Google apps. These manufacturers need to do away with duplicating applications or give you a choice to remove them.

Why would they need to remove them if people like them. Also not everyone uses gmail or even likes it or the app.

It doesn't take up a ton of space or resources. Just disable it.

I use samsungs email, samsungs gallery, samsungs messenger. Those are some of the small reasons I get Samsung devices.

I use Gmail app for my Gmail, the Outlook app for my Hotmail, and the Samsung Mail app for the Corporate Email

Personally I prefer to keep all of my email accounts separate.

You have ads mixed in with your emails in the Gmail app?

I used to use the Samsung Mail in the past but my only issue and the only reason why I went back to gmail is because of calendar invites. When you tapped on yes it would open the web browser to Google Calendar which was super annoying. Whereas Gmail you just tap yes and it inputs into the calendar in the background. Not sure if this is still the behavior of Samsung Mail as I haven't tried to use it lately.

Well I am a G-Suite user. I use it for my businesses. That's why I stick with Google products.

Used to use Samsung email exclusively. But the app became a battery hog. Now using Outlook app with multiple accounts.

I use Samsung email. Some of the key reasons are

Group email management - it is fantastic at this, including bcc group emails for gdpr. Gmail is terrible at group emails.

Scheduled sync, can control when email syncs and switch it off after working hours.

Dark mode.

Save emails to phone.

These are some of the reasons I prefer Samsung mail. This app is one of the key reasons I got the note over the mate 20! Couldn't take the risk the mates email app didn't do the things Samsung's did.

I'm using Gmail now because Samsung's email app had consistent sync issues, not sure if it's fixed as Gmail suits me fine, I have outlook set for my work email for the odd time I need to access it outside working hours

I got rid of my GMAIL app. It got wonky and every time I deleted an email it would reappear in the inbox within minutes. I even tried immediately deleting it in the trash, and it still came back! I found this to be crazy and super annoying.

You have ads mixed in with your emails in the Gmail app?

Yep, that's supposedly a "feature"...I never found a way to opt out either.

I agree and i set up that way also

Hmmm...I wonder why I don't have ads? Interesting. This is going to bug me now. Lol. Not that I want ads....lol.

Odd...I have never had ads in my Gmail either. I don't think it's a feature.

I have always had ads under my promotion and social tabs in Gmail. Not on my primary. It's like a stickied ad that changes everytime I log in.
