Update Apps

By updating all google apps, the updates bring new features along with bug fixes and security patches. To update the apps:

1. Open the Google Play Store app.
2. At the top right, tap the profile icon.
3. Tap Manage apps & device. Apps with an update available are labeled “Update available.”
4. Tap Update.

Manual Sync

This is the quickest and easiest option. You can manage how your apps sync messages, email, and other recent data in your Google Account. Manual sync refreshes your account data for all your apps made by Google, including any with auto-sync turned off.

1. Open your phone’s Settings app.
2. Tap About phone and then Google Account and then Account sync.
3. If you have more than one account on your phone, tap the one you want to sync.
4. Tap More and then Sync now.

Remove and re-add the account to your phone

Removing an account from your phone may result in everything connected with that account getting deleted from your phone. When you re-add the account info associated with that account automatically syncs with your phone.

Reset the date & time

You should set the date, time and time zone to automatic on your Android phone. Otherwise, it can hamper the sync functions on your phone. Try to set both manually. But make sure they are correct. Otherwise, you will continue to face ‘sync is currently experiencing problems’ error on your Android phone.

You can also try working on other simple solutions such as updating your android system, clear data and cache, background app refreshing, disabling and re-enabling sync option to jump-start things for you.
