Chesly is an independent app by Chesly, Inc. and is not affiliated with Apple, Google, Meta or any platform it connects to. Platform names and logos are trademarks of their owners.

Gmail and Google Workspace connect with a Google App Password. Chesly walks you through generating one inside the app.

Steps

  1. Go to Settings > Email Accounts > Add Email Account > Gmail.
  2. Enter your address. Type just you for @gmail.com, or your full Workspace address (you@yourdomain.com).
  3. Tap Continue. Chesly opens Google’s App Password page with your email pre-filled.
  4. Tap Create on Google. Copy the 16-character password.
  5. Paste it back in Chesly. Spaces don’t matter.

Chesly verifies over IMAP and your inbox starts syncing.

Notes

  • 2-Step Verification is required. If yours isn’t on, Google walks you through enabling it first.
  • Workspace: works as long as your IT admin allows App Passwords for your domain.

Disconnect

Go to Settings > Email Accounts, tap the address, then tap Disconnect. You can also delete the Chesly entry at myaccount.google.com/apppasswords.
