GPush is a long-awaited and relatively simple app that is able to send you push notifications for new Gmail messages. The app made a very short appearance in the App Store on August 8th, but had to be pulled due to server issues. The fix took much longer than expected, but thankfully the app is now back in the App Store.
Unlike PushMail, another app that is able to push new Gmail messages, GPush doesn’t forward your messages to another account, so there won’t be any concerns over stolen messages. GPush uses IMAP IDLE, which is a technology that allows a mail client to tell the server that it is ready to accept real-time notifications. With GPush installed on your iPhone, you won’t have to open up your Mail app just to see if you have a new message waiting for you.
GPush is extremely easy to use. Simply open the app and enter your Gmail username and password. GPush uses SSL Security Certificate, so you can be sure your information is secure. Once you have entered your information, you can customize the notifications to your liking. GPush is able to notify you of new messages via sounds, badges, and alerts. The push notification will display who the message is from along with the subject of the email. If the message seems important enough, open up your Mail app, and if not, just wait for the next notification to appear.
GPush is now available in the App Store for only $.99.
