Frequently Asked Questions

My recipients can't see the logo in my signature. Why?

Check the image's viewing setting. The guide has a step for this right after the upload: allow anyone to view the image. If you skipped it, go back and set that before saving.

What do I need before I start?

Just your Gmail account and a logo saved on your computer. The signature editor's 'Insert image' option pulls the file straight from your machine.

What should actually go in the signature?

The guide keeps it simple: your name, role, and company, plus a logo. Click the logo to size it down, then scroll to the bottom and save.
