Also, lately, two unwelcome icons have appeared at the bottom of the screen. One says “meeting” and the other is something else that I never use. Both of these icons are not only useless, they are annoying. They cover up the “reply” button at the bottom of open emails. It takes some doing to get it back so I can reply.
I have 4 email addresses and this is happening on all of them.
I am ready to take a hammer to my iPad. Does anybody know how to get the trash can icon back to stay and how to get rid of the new, useless icons at the bottom of the screen?
Thank you.

Meetings is a new platform for Google, an alternative to Zoom and Skype. Very useful for people who work remote.
When you clear out page 1 of your trash page (I assume by clicking "select all" and then pressing the "delete forever" option), it brings you to a black trash page and at the very top of that trash page, the option to "Empty Trash Now" will appear temporarily.
However, it's likely that you already deleted all your trash, and that's why that option disappears after a few seconds.
