Is anyone having problems setting up and logging into iCloud email in the stock email app? I can't setup the account, it fails every time.
I've been getting bullied and discriminated by Apple over using an iCloud e-mail on Android and third party apps; making it very difficult to be a viable email option for me at this point. Frankly, I don't think it's worth the hassle.
Elaborate please. I use iCloud without any issues on my S8+, and did on the Pixel before it. I have never had any issues whatsoever.
You might need to check two factor Auth and get an app specific password.
I also use hop email which has an icloud specific account setting. Still requires me to get an app specific password via appleid.apple.com
You won't have issues if you are using an apple email client.
Considering that apple doesn't make any Android mail apps, I'm not quite sure what your point is.
The point has been made on this thread already, which you obviously missed.
You need to create new app specific passwords for it to work apparently. I just can't be bothered. I need simple stuff that just works.
I already have like 24 character account passwords generated by 1password and if I were truly paranoic I'd download an encrypted email app from the store.
At the end of the day I just want to read my emails and not have to deal with SMS, phone calls, two passwords or courier authentication to do just that.

Then that's on you. It works, you just don't want to do it.
where did i write that it didn't work?
24 ? That's it? Sheesh. I have well over 100+ on my LastPass lol ;x.The point has been made on this thread already, which you obviously missed.
