Accounts & sync
11.6
Use the Accounts & Sync settings to add, remove, and manage your Google

and whether all applications send, receive, and synchronize data on their
own schedules, and whether all applications can synchronize user data
automatically.
Gmail, Google Calendar, and other applications may also have their own
settings to control how they synchronize data; see the sections on those
applications for details.
