Unfortunately, this did not work with the latest Gmail version. It immediately goes to "something went wrong blah blah blah contact your IT admin," then it resets the port number to 80. I might ask for a refund before the day is over, if I couldn't get it to work.

I bought this last night and then refunded it after making a couple attempts to get it to work. Then I realized that it wasn't the app, it was me or rather it seems that making multiple attempt, with varying combinations of resetting your Exchained and deleting your Exchange account if you already set it up, are necessary to get it to hand-shake properly. And now I have the personal satisfaction of not having my school tell me what I can and can't do on my phone (i.e leave it without a security modality when I don't need it) nor are they able to remote wipe my phone without warning etc.. Of course the latter has never happened and probably never will, the fact that they force me to give them that power is unnerving. So the app works and has been running seamlessly in the background for several days now. I recently switched from iOS and didn't realize the conditions I was agreeing to in setting up my school email account on my phone. I re-installed the account on the iPhone recently and noticed that they only refer to my institution for a description of what I was actually doing whereas with Android OS the conditions are explicitly laid out.

[EDIT] Works great! Initially it seemed that the app was not working properly but that was user error. I am using Nine email and I attempted to set up Exchained for it. The latest version of Nine does not require any special configuration with Exchained. I now have the double security that I wanted; a passcode to unlock the phone and a passcode to unlock my Corporate email.

refund period too short. didn't work with our Office356 account which apparently requires Outlook app. maybe works with other server setups. Edit: +1 star (from 2 to 3) for developer responsiveness. Will reach out now to see about troubleshooting. Edit: Upgraded to 4 stars due to developer's continued help and the discovery that my company requires "Company Portal" so Exchained will not work for me.

The updated Samsung email app doesn't allow the manual setup needed, and I haven't set it up with Nine because I can disable _bindadmin receivers and override security policy to disable permissions, bypassing Knox (not rooted). The problem was that when using the previous Samsung email, I also turned off all Knox apps at the time I was using Exchained, and I was sending unencrypted emails, which got me flagged. Moral: don't turn off Knox at the same time. 5 stars because it does work though.

I rarely review apps, but I have to give some feedback on Exchained. I rely on my school exchange calendar, since I updated my phone I couldn't use the server because my phone is unencrypted (other than that I have good security practice). This app did require a little fiddling to get set up but since then, it has worked flawlessly, both on WiFi and mobile data, with and without my VPN active. Without it I would have had to wipe my phone and go back to the horrible stock firmware. Thank you!
