I have changed the password on my Gmail account. Emails are now not coming through to my iPhone as it needs a password. I cannot find where on the iPhone they now have where you change your password for Gmail. Used to be in Mail app, isn't now. Anyone got any ideas?

Have you tried
Ok Brian just had a look and under the mail settings swiping brings you to a link regarding accounts. 1 swipe later to the right you get the number of current accounts you have. In there you can add account. I'm guessing you found all this. So under add account you have google which I'm assuming you can double tap and add the gmail account. Or, if not maybe under the other option you could manually do it. I'm guessing you have to readd ther account from scratch in either case. No idea if that will work by the way but it is the only thing I can find. iOS 18.2 iPhone 15 pro.
Steps
Hi there,
Try doing these steps, and hopefully this will fix your Gmail account.
First, open the Passwords app, and manually add your Google credentials here.
Next, do the following:
1. Open settings, then navigate all the way to the bottom, to apps, tap on that, then navigate to Mail and tap on that.
2. on this screen, tap on mail accounts, then Google, and tap on that.
3. Here you want to navigate all the way to the end, where it says delete. Tap on that to delete your Gmail account. Keep in mind you're not erasing anything from Google servers, you're only deleting from your iPhone.
4. Finally, back out to the main Mail screen, and tap on add account, then add your credentials, and you should be good to go.

Why have the tick boxes if we don't have the option of opting out of information sharing?
