Check your emails at www.gmail.com If there is email there which you're not getting using your app (default Apple mail app?) then re-enter the mail account details.
EDIT: OR you've encountered Gmails more secure authentication. You specifically need to DISABLE secure authentication for devices that don't let mail through.
IE click here https://www.google.com/settings/security/lesssecureapps
