Swipe to Delete with Exchange Gmail and iOS
by macjasp Average Reading Time: less than a minute.
The most frustrating feature of using Exchange Gmail with the iOS mail client is not having the ability to swipe and trash an email, instead it will archive – a real annoyance at times.
However, it seems that this feature has now been implemented (albeit rather discretely by Google) via the device settings pane at http://m.google.com/sync
I’m not sure exactly when this feature became active but I’m thankful it has and its one more reason for me not to use a 3rd party iOS Gmail client any time soon.

Where can I find these settings on my iPhone/iPad?
@luco you need to log in to google at https://m.google.com/syncThen select your device from the list and you will see the option.
