Faculty and staff users who are required to receive email on a mobile device for work purposes should follow the procedures in the stipend request form. All faculty and staff also have the option of using their personal devices to send and receive Drew email.

For non-Android devices, University Technology recommends connecting to Google Apps with Google Sync support (see below for Android instructions). This support provides connectivity to Google Apps as if it were a Microsoft Exchange server.  As such, you will use the following settings:

Username:  yourusername@drew.edu

Password:  your uLogin password
If you have enrolled in the Duo Two-Factor Authentication service, use your Device Password instead.  

...

The Terms of Service for using Google Apps is only available on the web, so before you set the account up on a mobile device, you will need to access your Drew Google account on the web. You only need to do this once, so if you've already logged in to your Google Apps account in a training session or another time, you do not need to repeat this step.

...

To configure your iPhone or iPad, please follow the instructions available at Google Support.  Please note that you access Google similarly to how you used to access the Drew Mobility Server, by using the "Microsoft Exchange" server type on your phone. Do NOT use the "Gmail" option, ; it will not work fully and you . You will not get calendars and contacts on your device, and email will only show up on your device periodically instead of as soon as it is received.  Please also note that, although Google has disabled this Exchange support for gmail.com accounts, it remains available for Google Apps accounts.

For BlackBerry 6 and 7 devices (most newer Bold, Torch, and Curve devices), you configure your device to use the BlackBerry Internet Service (BIS).  Your BlackBerry will recognize the Gmail server and allow for calendar, contact, and email synchronization.  Please note you cannot have two accounts on your device with the same email address so you'll have to remove whatever email support you have on the BlackBerry now and replace it with the BIS connection when Google Apps for Drew is active.
