With SimpleSYN Mobile, you can not only sync your emails, contacts, and calendar to your smartphone, but also sync the notes and tasks.

However, Android devices do not have a built-in default app for managing notes. On your Android device, you must therefore use a third-party app, such as "Tasks & Notes for MS Exchange" (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.myklos.inote&hl=de). You can use the current Gmail app for the tasks.

On your iOS device, you do not need an additional app and you can use the built-in tasks and notes apps.

There is usually no need to install an additional app on your mobile device. For setting up the synchronization on the device, a special SimpleSYN Mobile account of the type "Exchange ActiveSync" is created.

Before SimpleSYN Mobile can be used for synchronization, you must set up SimpleSYN Mobile once, configure the devices you want to synchronize and connect them to SimpleSYN Mobile.

The setup process therefore includes two steps:

  1. Installing and setting up the SimpleSYN Mobile software on your Windows ® PC with Outlook ® installed.
  2. The configuration on your devices (e.g. smartphone).

During setup on the PC, a SimpleSYN Mobile pseudo email address is automatically generated. The address has the ending @simplesyn.app and is required to establish a connection from your device.
