    Bottom line<\/h2>\n

    While there are plenty of excellent email clients available, Gmail stands out a mile. It isn’t just the best email app for Android<\/a>, it is the very heart of the Android experience itself. The first thing that you’ll need when setting up your new Android phone<\/a>, Chromebook<\/a>, tablet<\/a>, or even a smartwatch<\/a>, is your Google ID. There’s no Google without Gmail.<\/p>\n

    Google’s host of platforms, services, and apps aside, Gmail by itself is a fantastic product. For example, you can set your status for Gmail and Google Chat<\/a> from within the email platform, move photos from Gmail to Google Photos<\/a>, use search filters to find what you’re looking<\/a> for quickly, and much more. Of course, we’ve only just scratched the tip of the iceberg, so be sure to check out the best tips and tricks for Gmail on desktop<\/a> to dig deeper.<\/p>\n
