The Mobile Apps You Need For Google Workspace
To use Google Workspace on your mobile, you need to install the suite of apps. Once the apps are installed, you can manage your email and calendar, have chats and video calls and edit your documents, all from your mobile.
If you're using an Android, most of the apps you need are already installed on your device. Once you have signed in with your Google Workspace account, you'll have instant access to all your stuff.
If you're on an iPhone, it is more fiddly. You will need to download the apps from the App store and set them up before you can access your stuff from your mobile.

Optional Apps

Google Voice
If your account is enabled to use Google Voice, you should download the Google Voice apps so you can make and receive calls from your Google Voice number. [Download: Android - iPhone]
