How can we help?
Find quick answers for using Bubble on a phone or computer, connecting Gmail, loading conversations, sending mail, and removing Bubble's local data.
Connect Gmail
- Open the Bubble web app or native app and choose Connect Gmail.
- Select the Google account you want to use.
- Review and approve the Gmail permission.
- Keep the page or app open while the first conversations load.
Bubble currently supports Gmail. Microsoft, iCloud, Yahoo, and generic IMAP are not enabled yet.
Mail is not refreshing
- Pull down on the inbox to refresh.
- Confirm the phone or computer has a working network connection.
- If Google access was revoked, sign out of Bubble and connect Gmail again.
- On iPhone, background refresh is best effort and is scheduled by iOS. On the web, refresh while the Bubble tab is open. Neither path is a guaranteed real-time notification service.
Add or switch Gmail accounts
- Open Bubble and tap the settings gear.
- Tap Add another Gmail account.
- Choose and authorize the additional Google account.
- Return to Settings and tap an account to switch its mailbox into view.
Free includes one Gmail account. Bubble Plus is available as an optional purchase on iPhone; it is required to add more accounts and supports up to eight connected Gmail accounts. Bubble keeps each account's conversations, cache, writing tools, saved views, attachments, pins, and sync state separate. It does not merge accounts into a unified inbox.
If Plus access ends, accounts already connected remain available to switch or remove; Bubble only prevents adding another account beyond the current free limit.
Find more conversations
Bubble automatically requests the next Gmail page as you approach the bottom. On a slow connection, a Loading more indicator may appear. If a request fails, tap Retry.
Use the filter chips for Unread, Starred, Sent, Files, and Groups. Search can be combined with filters.
Send or reply
Open a conversation and tap the message field to reply in place, or use the compose button for a new email. Review the visible To, Cc, and Bcc recipients before sending.
If Bubble reports that a send result is uncertain, check Gmail Sent before trying again to avoid a duplicate.
Archive and Trash
Bubble supports reversible Gmail actions. Moving a conversation to Trash does not immediately permanently delete it. Use Undo when available if an action was accidental.
Remove an account and its local data
- Open Settings in Bubble.
- On the web, choose Disconnect and clear this browser. On iPhone, use the account menu and tap Remove from Bubble, or tap Sign out for the active account.
- Confirm the account removal.
Bubble removes that account's local credential or in-memory token, cached mail, downloaded attachments and inventory, templates, signatures, quick replies, saved triage views, pins, and sync state from the selected device or browser. Your original messages remain in Gmail, and other connected accounts stay available.
Bubble makes a best-effort request to revoke Google access. Remote revocation can fail because of network, Google-account, or SDK conditions even though local deletion completes. Confirm or remove the grant from Google Account connections.
