Troubleshooting signatures not showing up in the Gmail iOS app โ€‹

We were able to get our signature to show up immediately by switching to another Gmail account and then switching back to our main account through the app.

We also found that removing our account from the app and then re-adding it resulted in our new signature loading instantly.

Still not showing up? Please ensure that you've selected your signature as the For New Emails Use drop down option in your Gmail webmail settings โ€“ view the Gmail Webmail instructions.
