The majority of users use their desktops to manage and compose emails, but they rely on their chosen mobile email app to get real-time messages. The problem, though, starts when your Android phone no longer receives emails. Read on to find out how to fix the issue if your Android phone frequently fails to receive emails.
REFRESH YOUR INBOX MANUALLY
Of course, the most basic way on trying to fix why you are not receiving an email is that refreshing your inbox. Open your Gmail app and just slide down from the top to manually refresh it.
CHECK BACKGROUND SETTINGS
If you are not connected to a WiFi or you tend to go out and rely on your mobile data, and you’ve deactivated the background data permission for the Gmail app it won’t run on your mobile connection. Therefore you won’t be receiving any emails. Make sure that the Gmail app’s background data permission is activated.
ENABLE GMAIL ACCOUNT SYNC
Your phone won’t get emails if you have your Gmail account’s syncing deactivated (until you manually refresh the inbox using the tricks above). Make sure to always sync your Gmail account.
REMOVE AND ADD YOUR GMAIL ACCOUNT
If email syncing is not working for some reason then the best possible way to fix it is to remove your google account on your mobile device and add it again.
CHECK NOTIFICATION SETTINGS
Maybe you are receiving an email but your device is not sending a notification to bump you up. So check on your settings if your Gmail app notification is turned on.
LOCK THE MAIL APP
Some Android devices aggressively optimize their battery life by killing off idle apps in the background. To ensure that you can still receive emails, you can lock your favorite email app.
CHECK YOUR SPAM
Gmail’s algorithms can occasionally overreact and classify legitimate emails as spam. You’ll need to transfer important emails to the main inbox and constantly check the spam box.
UPDATE GMAIL APP
Google updates Gmail frequently to include new features and solve bugs. The Gmail app may have bugs and issues if it is outdated. On your Android phone, you must visit the Play Store and install any pending Gmail updates.
Here are all the tips on how you can fix Android Phones Not Receiving Emails. So make sure to try the fixes mentioned above before you decide on making a new email.
