Step 1
Before setting up email please check to see that the GMAIL app is updated to the latest version.
- Open the Google Play Store on your Android device.
- Type “Gmail” into the search bar and then select update.
- Note: If the update option is not available, you’re already on the latest version.
After the update is installed, tap the Gmail app icon to open it.
Step 2
Tap the menu icon in the upper left corner:
- Tap Settings at the bottom.
- Tap Add Account.
- Tap Exchange and Office 365
Note: Choosing “Outlook, Hotmail, Live” will not allow syncing of calendar and contacts.
Step 3
Enter your full email address and tap Next. (yourname@yourdomain.com)


Step 4
Follow any prompts you may get, including security permissions. You may also be asked to set your sync settings and to set a display name.
You may also be asked to give addition security control. In this case, choose Activate.
Step 5
Go to the inbox you just set up. If you see an email that says “Action Required to Sync Email,” open it and tap Use Another Mail App Instead.
Step 6
Pull down the Android notification bar by swiping down from the top of your screen.
If you see a notification that reads “Unable to Sync calendar and contacts.” tap it. Then tap Allow to give access and you’re done!
Note: If you do not see a sync error notification, you’re good to go!
