For the past couple of days I have not been able to log into my gmail account on my iPhone.

 

I receive the error: Network Error: The network request has timed out. Click retry to try again or cancel to log into another account.

 

This seemed to happen a day after the gmail app update. My password is correct -- I can log in from the web.

I do have an internet connection -- I can browse websites.

 

Any help on what could solve the issue would be greatly appreciated.
