It's quite easy to add multiple email accounts to the Gmail app and manage them. Gmail app lets you access different accounts without any problem. In fact, the app syncs efficiently and refreshes itself to show you new emails. Login through the browser, again and again, isn't preferable and hence one must add multiple email accounts to the Gmail app as the app easily syncs every new app so that you won't need to re-open your account anywhere else.
You can't only add multiple Gmail accounts but also other accounts as well to the Gmail app. For instance, you can add Yahoo, Outlook, Hotmail, Exchange, and Office 365 as well. So, whenever you need to switch between the different accounts, you just need to open the Gmail app to have an easy access to every mail.
