How to add a signature in Gmail
Set up an email signature in Gmail, choose when it appears, and keep it short enough to help.
On a computer
- Click the gear, then See all settings.
- On the General tab, scroll to Signature and click Create new.
- Name it, then write your signature in the box.
- Under Signature defaults, choose it for For new emails use and On reply/forward use.
- Click Save Changes at the bottom.
On a phone
The Gmail app has its own mobile signature: menu, Settings, your account, Mobile signature (Android) or Signature settings (iPhone). It is plain text only.
What to put in it
Short wins. Most people read email on a phone, where a long signature pushes the message off the screen.

Leave out quotes, long legal notices and big logos. If you add a logo, keep it small, because many email apps show it as an attachment.
Signatures in Perfect Mail
Perfect Mail uses the signature you already set up in Gmail. Set it once in Gmail, and every email you send from Perfect Mail carries it, on the Mac, the iPhone and the web.
