In mobile terminals of Samsung Galaxy S7 A proprietary application for managing email accounts is included with the new version of TouchWiz. Its use is quite simple and intuitive, but it is always possible to get a little more out of it. We indicate options that you can use in this development to customize it in the best possible way.
Registering an account is not something complex, so we are not going to focus on it, but on additional options that it is possible to use once this has already been done (the wizard included is also very useful and makes the process in question much more comfortable). In this way, you will be able to add a signature in the emails to change the tone that is emitted when a new message arrives - and, in this way, differentiate it from the rest of the notifications. These improvements help you better identify and manage each email.
Before you begin: update and prepare your S7
Keeping your software up to date avoids errors with email and improves compatibility with mail servers. Update as follows:
- Settings> Software update.
- Toca Download and install.
- Follow the instructions that appear on the screen.
Additionally, if you use many accounts, you'll check your email with greater stability and better performance. An updated database prevents synchronization failures.
Possibilities of the Samsung Galaxy S7
The first thing we are going to indicate is how to change the sound that is received when an email arrives. To do this, you must access the Settings of the email account (this is done either by clicking the icon called More in the upper right). Customizing the tone helps you distinguish the email from other alerts..
Once this is done, look for the section called notifications and, here, you will see different options, such as being able to deactivate the sound by using a slider and, also, the name of the email account you have. Click on the latter and on the screen that appears do the same in Notification sound and select the one that best suits you. By the way, here it is also possible to set whether or not vibration is used in the Samsung Galaxy S7. Turn on vibration if you usually silence your phone.
Go back to the initial Settings as we have explained before and, by clicking on the name of the email account, you will be able to establish a signature for the messages you send. To do this, look for the section called Company and, once you activate it, use the Edit option. Now enter the text you want and click on Done. Now whenever you send an email, what you have indicated will be included. Use a brief signature with your name, title, and a contact phone number..
Change the name and something else
If you use multiple email accounts on your Samsung Galaxy S7, you may want to rename each one to make it much more intuitive to recognize each one. By clicking on the chosen one, use the option Rename. A pop-up window appears in which it is possible to do what we indicate. When you're done, click OK and repeat the process as many times as necessary. Clear names prevent sending from the wrong account.
A couple of additional interesting options that are included in the mail application of the Samsung Galaxy S7 are the ability to establish a Synchronization interval and configure Download attachments. In the first case, enter the Settings option of the same name and you can both indicate how often you have to check for new emails and, also, how to proceed if you are roaming -mobility conditions-. Reduce the interval for a faster response; increase it to save battery..
In the case of managing the files received, you must use the section Download attachments automaticallyIf you enable automatic downloads, every time you receive an email with a text document or PDF on your Samsung Galaxy S7, it will be downloaded if you are connected to a Wi-Fi network, significantly reducing data consumption and potentially helping you save data.
