It's no secret that we're huge fans of Google Workspace.
Unlike its main competitor, it was designed from the ground up for the cloud and has constantly evolved to streamline how we work and live. The beauty of Google Workspace is that it seamlessly syncs your essential tools, allowing information to flow effortlessly across your devices.
While Google Workspace shines on your desktop, it's equally powerful on your mobile and tablet. If you're an Android user, most of the Google apps are likely already integrated with your phone. So, this guide is specifically for you Apple iPhone aficionados who want to unlock the full potential of Google Workspace on your device. We'll highlight our favorite apps from the Apple iOS store that make using Google Workspace a breeze on your phone.
Key Apps to transform your iPhone into a Google Workspace powerhouse
Gmail: The heart of Google Workspace. Get instant notifications, use Smart Compose to write emails faster, and enjoy a clean, intuitive interface.
Google Calendar: Never miss a beat. Stay organised with shared calendars, event reminders, and easy integration with other Google apps.
Google Drive: Your files, anywhere you need them. Access your documents, photos, and videos from any device, collaborate in real-time, and enjoy ample free storage.
Google Meet: Stay connected face-to-face. Host or join video meetings with crystal-clear audio and video, even on the go.
Google Docs/Sheets/Slides: Create, edit, and collaborate on documents, spreadsheets, and presentations right from your phone.
Google Keep: Capture ideas and stay organised. Jot down notes, create checklists, and set reminders for anything that comes to mind.
Google Chrome: Your preferred browser, synced across devices. Seamlessly switch between your phone and computer, access bookmarks and saved passwords, and enjoy a familiar experience.
Bonus Tips:
Enable Notifications: Stay on top of your work by allowing notifications for Gmail, Calendar, and other important apps.
Customise Widgets: Add Google widgets to your home screen for quick access to calendar events, emails, and tasks.
Offline Access: Enable offline access for Drive files so you can work even when you don't have an internet connection (this setting may not be available if you’re using a company account).
Do it yourself?
If your organisation allows it, you can set up Google Workspace on an iOS device to access your personal, work or school account. You can use your own personal device or one that your organisation has issued to you. Learn how to do it yourself at the Google Workspace Learning Centre.
