I updated both my iPhone XS Max and M1 iPad to iOS 15. I have many email account on both devices but I'm having severe slow down when manually fetching Gmail specific emails. I don't "auto-fetch", I always go manual on all my accounts and in the past I'd wait for a few seconds (tops) for Gmail to update my inbox, but now it's easily upwards of a few minutes. Is anyone else seeing this?
Got a tip for us?

iOS 15 Native Mail app - Gmail is slow!

Yep same here. I thought it was my iCloud or Outlook accounts but they work and connect quickly. I deleted my gmail account and tried to add it back.... kept spinning for more than 30 seconds before it connected to their servers. I had to add the Gmail app for now to get my mail.
Quite frankly, I'm not sure how anyone can stand the Apple Mail app. Every year there's issues on release of a new version of iOS - whether it be Exchange syncing, Google fetching, or some other weird bug. On top of that, last I checked (I'd be glad to be proven wrong here), you can't disable notifications on a per-account basis. I've moved on - for years now.
You can. Settings-->Mail-->Notifcations-->Customize Notifications then choose alerts, sounds, badges for each email account.
Pretty sure this has been there for a while, because I have several accounts but get notifications only for one of them.
