And I made the mistake of enabling push notifications - only to find my phone covered in notifications when I woke up - I know Google don't really have a better way of doing this due to iOS... but it does beg the question why bother, when you can't better what is already available?
Disagree. The reason that Gmail for iOS and Gmail in general suck is the total lack of support for cryptography within the application (S/MIME, PGP, or other solutions). As a friend of mine said, "Gmail -- a private conversation between you, me, and 25,000 SREs."
Funny, but not necessarily true. Poking around in someone's personal data is a really, REALLY good way to get fired immediately.
Jeez it is a smack in the face to scroll down and see the iOS Mail app after the beautiful Gmail app.
Google, I have the solution. Step 1: Checkout the Sparrow source code Step 2: Find and Replace All on the word "Sparrow" and change it to "Gmail" Step 3: Add push notifications. Compile and send to the app store.
I dunno about that - I really wanted to like Sparrow for iOS (aside from a couple bugs dealing with insane volumes of email, I love it on the desktop) but it never felt quite right to me. I've actually just now reinstalled it to check what bothered me so much, and it's the same issue I have with the new Gmail app: swipe-to-archive simply isn't there. Frequency of me archiving messages: extremely high. Frequency of ch…
>> Swiping the other direction exposes five options, two of which (I assume "archive" and "delete") have rather ambiguous icons
Hyperbole, much?
In particular, I love that it lets me change the "from" address, similarly to how the gmail.com site lets me do that.
Neither Mail.app nor Sparrow made it easy to change the from.
I have a few different email addresses that all get forwarded to my gmail account. Finally my mobile mail problem -- being able to select my from -- is solved.
If anyone from Google is reading this, thank you!

In Mail.app on iOS you just have to tap the 'From' address and choose a different one. What am I missing?

Pages is fine on the iPad's larger screen, which can scale to display a US letter or A4 page reasonably clearly.
I suspect the root of the problem is a misplaced prioritization of presentation over content. Probably the right thing to do with graphics, but a really bad idea when handling text-based documents.
