Since Huawei can not simply package in the Gmail Android app despite running Android, the brand has its own Email client built-in. Additionally, Gmail is a platform-free service when it comes to its web-client. As long as you have an internet browser, you can access Gmail.

Keeping this two routes in mind, we recommend the email app method as that will integrate notifications and advanced editing functionality. However, as an alternate, we have explained the secondary method as well.

Method 1: Use Huawei Email App

Method utilizing built-in Email app comes first as it is the most convenient and has complete functionality of a stand-along app. Here is how to configure it:

Step 1 – Huawei Email app is pre-installed on EMUI phones so just simply open up the app.

Step 2 – On first start, the app will list various email accounts that you can configure. Tap on Gmail.

    I have a Gmail account, which was working just fine on my Huawei nova Y70 Plus, however, I just got a new printer and somehow while trying to be able to print from my phone (it won’t work because it tells me I cannot download from the Google account because no device is linked to Google) somehow, I ended up having to change the password for my [email protected] email and now when I try access my email via the app on my phone, it’s says I must verify, but every time I try, I get stopped by a Huawei page which wants me to allow it to (among other things) have all access to read, compose and even DELETE all my Gmail emails. Is there any way past this?
