Hello, Carol.

The Gmail app works specifically with Google accounts, and I can't see
a way to force it out of its comfort zone.  As to why someone would
want to use it, one might not need the power and data sharing
capabilities of Outlook.  One might want to keep Gmail activity very
separate from the activity on there accounts.  If for some reason a
user had to delete the Apple iOS mail account and had to start over,
and if one of the accounts under the app was a POP3, all messages
might be lost, including those on the Gmail account.  Perhaps the
interface is just pleasant to some.  There are some handy elements,
such as the "Empty Trash" button.  The text explaining the new
features of V. 5.0.13 claims that with one swipe, the entire Inbox of
a Gmail account can be cleaned out.  I haven't tested this feature
with VoiceOver.

Is it specifically only to work with Gmail, please?

     Hello, everyone.

     It might be of interest to a number of you that the latest
release of
     the Gmail app for iOS devices operates somewhat differently with
     VoiceOver than did previous versions, and based on the testing I
have
     done, the app has improved for VoiceOver users.  In earlier
versions,
     if one wanted to delete a message from the message index, one would
     have to check a checkbox next to its header information and then
press
     a "Delete" button.  Now, double-tap and holding the button
     corresponding to the unwanted message places the app in a "Select"
     mode.  The user can then move down the list of messages and simply
     double-tap the unwanted ones; the "hold" gesture needs to be used
only
     on the first undesired  message.  Then, once the "delete" list has
     been compiled, the "Delete" button can be activated.  There are
other
     ways to get rid of messages, but I don't want to make this message
     overly long.  There is also an "Undo" button which evidently allows
     the user to take back a number of actions.  I have not tested this
     function yet.  Most gratifying is the possibility that the bug which
     prevented text editing of the body of a message may have been
     squashed, at least if the user is typing on the on-screen
keyboard.  I
     haven't tested it with a Bluetooth keyboard yet.
