If you’re already a Google One user, go to and click “Help.” There are 14 categories, including “other.” You can chat with a tech or send an email. It also offers extra storage - 100 gigabytes instead of the usual You can get free tech support for any Google product, such as Gmail or Maps, if you have a Google One account, which is $20 a year. I had to do it again the next day, but now I’m set. They suggested turning off “Improve Location” under “Settings” and turning it on again before rebooting. As a Pixel owner, I get free support from /pixelphone. The phone’s compass wasn’t to blame, because Google Maps always gets my location right. Another day it was a naval station in Virginia, then Cleveland, Wolfeboro, N.H., etc. One day, my Android home screen was showing weather for Paxton, Mass. Good thing an Android app is coming soon. That way I can continue to compose and answer mail from my old accounts. Only the pro version lets me use other email addresses within the OnMail inbox. But I plan to renew it when the year is up. That’s huge! Admittedly, if the company hadn’t given it to me to try out for a year, I wouldn’t have gotten the pro version, which is $15 a month or $100 annually. But here’s another point for OnMail: The pro version offers 500 gigabytes of storage. What’s more, my email to a hundred history club members wasn’t as easy as in Gmail.

I have one label called “very special reader mail,” which is a misnomer because all reader mail is special. Just click the plus sign above any message to label it. But that happens less often now because OnMail underlines spelling mistakes, bad grammar and style problems. I can “undo” a message, un-sending anything I might later regret, such as typos.

If businesses know you’ve opened their messages, they’ll bombard you with more. For example, it ignores “read receipts,” those notifications senders get when you’ve read their email. Even Gmail’s filters haven’t worked as well in my tests. It works better than labeling something “spam” in Gmail, which tends to bounce back. ![]() Every time a new sender is about to put mail in my box, I hit “block” or “accept.” If I hit “block,” they’re banished permanently, unless I unblock them later.
