How do I get a synced email folder on my home screen and other questions?

[David Hilliard]

Hey folks, this is my first Android phone, so go easy on me.

Using:
Samsung S8+
Samsung email client(assuming "email" is the Samsung email client)

I have an exchange account for work. I have tons of sub-folders and I need to constantly monitor some of them. I have tried everything I can think of but can't figure it out.

Ideally, I'd like to be able to have a widget on my home screen that shows when emails come into those sub folders. Right now it works with the Inbox, but nothing else. This is a must have for me. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Welcome to Android Central! You could consider using the Gmail app for your exchange account, rather than the stock Email app: https://support.google.com/mail/answer/6078445?hl=en. With the Gmail app, you can create multiple widgets for different folders.
