Re: Bing - Make it a page Thats too bad. Bing is looking pretty sharp and has all he info I need.

Re: Bing - Make it a page more like the swipe left page in the default s7 edge (and HTC). They are called different things.

Bing - Make it a page I would like to make bing takeup an entire page like google now. Is that possible?

I figured out how to do it with gmail. I dont like the stock app. I had an HTC, I may try their app, I liked the way it looked. Samsung colors are always a bit too korean for me.. (loud). LOL

Possible to customize gmai icons for accounts (within gmail)? I finally got gmail working with my Hotmail account on my S7 Edge. I have 3 mail accounts, gmail, Hotmail, and exchange. My Hotmail and exchange are both circles with a letter (close to same color). Can the look and feel of the gmail...

Re: Gmail will not add my Hotmail account with calendar and contacts, it only adds email. There is no option to sync contacts or calendar like my exchange account. update - I think I got it to work. Had to disable two-factor authentication, which also jacked up my xbox for the kid, oh well, I...

2016 and google and Microsoft cant exchange basic data. WTF. These petty squabbles are BS. I have an s7 Edge, and I want to put contacts on the edge, but no, I cant. Because my contacts are in outlook, if I add them to the edge they will just disappear. Ive spent hours trying to turn android...

When I use the google mail client, my Hotmail contacts don't come over at all, it uses IMAP and only does email. How did you add it?

re: "I don't see how the OS has to do anything with it if the apps themselves don't support it" The underlying OS is what provides to tools to the developers (API and such). I think its not implemented because the underlying framework doesn't provide a robust enough solution, which would cause...

re: I am using the outlook app now. It is having trouble syncing my hotmail contacts, which was not an option in the gmail app at all. Ive had an iphone, samsung, htc, windows phone, and now samsung again. It was easiest in the windows phone. I dont see notifcation on my outlook icon, I have to...

re: Whether you see why I need it, is irrelevant. Many people have asked for this. Its actually quite simple. As a working professional, I often ignore personal emails, but have to respond to work ones promptly. Having to go into my app to figure out which is which is not efficient. I will use...

Did it work? My lord android is a mess. I miss my windows OS, but also miss apps.. LOL I added the account to the gmail app, contacts are not an option to sync.

Re: I am coming from a windows phone, where it was baked in, you can have multiple icons with notifications, it wasn't hard to do. My point is this, it should not be programmatically difficult (unless the underlying code for android is dated), and many people want it. Some of us don't want our...

re: That just seems like a bit of insanity to me. Install a separate app for each email account. I am considering it.

This is my biggest complain with android, its a mess. Its like a desktop from 1990, a bunch of icons. I think what I need is common and ive read many threads and such, however not many talk about the S7, and so I thought I would ask. I need two email icons that open up two separate accounts...
