Google Sync now supports Push Mail

Back in February I wrote a post about Google Sync and how you can sync your Google Calendar and Contacts to your iPhone wirelessly using the exchange feature on your iPhone. Well Google have now added support for push mail to their sync feature! In their blog post they write about their decision to add this.

If you have already setup your Gcal and/or Gcontacts as per my guide here to your phone then adding the mail to it is super simple….

  • Go to Settings
  • Go to Mail, Contacts, Calendar
  • Click on the Exchange account you currently have setup to your Gmail Cal and/or Contacts
  • Flick Mail to Yes
  • Now choose which folders you want to sync at the bottom of the current page

Now when you go to Mail from the home screen you will now have your Exchange account listed in your accounts list.

It’s really that simple! :) any probs let me know in the comments.
