For those individuals, we provide these instructions. Some people may notice that they won't have access to Drew's global contact list in older versions of iOS (this means you will see auto-fill work for people you have emailed in the past, but possibly not for Drewids you've never emailed before).

2. Select "Mail, Contacts, Calendars". In iOS 11, select "Accounts & Passwords".
   or
3. Select "Add Account".
   
4. Select "Google".
   
5. Enter your Drew email address. Click Next.
   
6. Enter your Drew username and password. Choose Login. If you are using Duo Security, approve the login the way you normally would on a computer browser.
   
7. If you wish to turn a specific feature off, touch the button to the right of that feature. When satisfied, choose Save in the top right.
   
8. You should now see a Gmail account in the Accounts list.
