Why don't email alerts show on my iPhone?

I just set up my phone yesterday do I'm new to it. Basically I logged into my Gmail account on the Mail app but for some reason new emails only appear when I go into the app and refresh the page manually. My mum has an iPod touch so I know that you can get them. I went into settings > notifications > mail and changed it so that the alerts should appear but they don't… It's an iPhone 4S if that helps.

It's called push notifications. Try that

I never had this problom on my iPhone.
go to your local AT&T, Sprint, T-mobile, Verizon etc etc

  • Why won't attachments show in my email? My professor grades our class's papers via iAnnotate. She sends us the graded copies with feedback comments as an attachment to an email. The attachment is an iAnnotate PDF. Recently my Yahoo mail account won't show these attachments on the computer. I can see and open the attachments on my iPhone. Is there any way I can fix this so that I can view these attachments on my computer?

  • Why don't I receive emergency alerts on my iPhone 5c? I have gone to settings>notifications and turned on emergency alerts, but I've never received them.

  • Why don't I receive alerts or a notification when I receive a text and I already checked my settings? I adjusted my setting and even put the ringer and notifications on and put the volume and ringer on and I receive no alert, no pop up, alert or notification when someone texts me. Why? This is the iPhone X! I went to the cell phone/ carrier store and they didn't help me. They said to go to the apple store or check the settings. I already adjusted the settings. So what do I do now?
