Add a Google Account to Dove
  1. Open Dove.

  2. Options to Add Account:

    1. You can quickly add an account from the sidebar by clicking the “+” icon next to All Accounts, as shown below:

    2. Or, click Dove at the top-left corner and select Add Account from the dropdown menu.

    3. Or, go to Settings → Accounts and click the “+” button at the bottom of the accounts list.

  3. An Add an account dialog will appear. Click Continue with Google. This will open Google's authentication page for you to sign in to your Google account.

  4. Google's sign-in page will open. Select your Google account from the list, or click Use another account to sign in with a different Google account. Then click on continue.

  5. Review the permissions that Dove is requesting access to, then click Continue to grant Dove access to your Google account.

    Important: These permissions allow Dove to read, send, and manage your email. Dove requires all of these to function correctly.

  6. Once successfully authenticated, you will see a "You're logged in!" confirmation screen. Close this window and return to the Dove app.

  7. You can now see your account in the dropdown that appears after clicking Dove in the top-left corner. It will also appear under the All Emails dropdown in the sidebar.

  8. Your Google account will now also appear in the Accounts list in Settings, showing your name and email address. By default, your account will be identified by your name as set in your Google profile.

  9. To rename the account, click Edit next to the name, type your preferred account name, and click Save.

Your Google account is now connected to Dove and your emails will begin syncing.
