Email Widget for Android
Need to root
Does the job but not pretty and won't open individual emails with k9.
Great on SGS for Exchange email Only widget that displays exchange email from SGS stock email app. Dev responds quickly and am confident the app will continue to improve.
Works as advertised. Some people were clearly born stupid ///
Great app! Best customer service... quick response to any problems or issues. Love it!!!
Followed all of the steps to skin the app. Wanted the yellow skin and used AndExplorer as the developer suggested. He said it would download to the skinnable options to be selected but it did not. It only downloaded to my download folder and I cannot select it to apply to the app. I am lost with this. Also, cannot show From on emails. It only shows subject. Wanted to send email to developer but for the life of me cannot find his email addess in he market. HELP PLEASE!!!
I'd give it 5 stars if I could rename the widgets. "Inbox," "Inbox," "Inbox" and "Inbox" don't make it readily apparent which account has mail.
I do not really like this application, because it has a clunky, rough-feeling interface. Having to hand copy skins with a file explorer is not my idea of a well-designed product. That being said, the author is making the phone do something that it isn't really supposed to do, insofar as displaying unread counts for your corporate Exchange email. If that's what you are looking for, and you've rooted your phone, I suspect that this is your only choice. (Unless your carrier's OS addons support it)
***DO NOT BUY *** Installed carefully... It will crash after 1 day and you won't be eligible for a refund! (Galaxy S 2)
Great app if your device is supported, unfortunately mine isn't (galaxy s) so I cannot use it with my exchange account.
Doesn't work with enhanced email, contacted seller and after roughly 36 hours still no answer
Great workaround until Google let's third parties back on the gmail train.
Wonderfully simple does exactly what it says. Developer is extremely friendly and quick to respond. Better than pure widgets i first bought
doesn't work with HTC Desire HD with stock mail or K9
Its good. Not great. Simple. Needs more skins. Sometimes does not refresh properly.
This app works well, even with unrooted Droid X / Gingerbread. If you are using with K-9 (which I use), be sure and install K-9 FIRST. Then download and install Email Widget. Doing so will make Email Widget work perfectly. I learned this trick from their support folks who responded and resolved the issue very rapidly. Solid app with excellent support. I suspect that those who are having issues have not followed the previously mentioned steps or have not contact their support.
Doesn't work with HTC Sensation. Refund.
Installed on Motorola Triumph. Since I wanted to use it with my Exchange account, I had to follow the web site instructions to install as a system app - steps were pretty clear, and I was able to view my Exchange e-mail in the widget. But I found it didn't refresh often enough, didn't look visually appealing - needs more skins and display options, different font options etc. Bottom line, it works - just not pretty.
Doesn't work with Thunderbolt.
This app is excellent and the developer is really responsive to questions!
This app shows up empty and doesnt work a lot of the time. I tried to contact dev as requested but he never responded so he gets a bad review
Have more than 30 unread emails in my inbox, the widget still showing empty.... REFUND
You'd think an Android mail widget would work witb a gmail account... But it doesn't...
Works ok when used with k9.
Works, but breaks after every reboot and has to be configured again.
With K9 it is working as expected. A little bit rough in the edges regarding skins but still the only tool that can do this job out there. It crashes K9 quite often probably when K9 is not freshly loaded.
Does not work at all... As stated,. It will not connect to emails, but adds several widgets to your list that will be unusable
Works ok but does not automatically load after a phone boot. I have to resize the widget to force it load. I am using Go launcher on MIUI.
The addition of Enhanced Email support finally allows me to take advantage of this widget. Performance exceeds any other mail widget.
If I could I would have given this 0 stars. This app will not connect to my email and the website states that if you get warning that you have to route your device. This is unacceptable to not have this as NOTE in the description. I worked on this over 15 minutes so no Market refund now. If they fix this I will charge my review. Sony Tablet S
Comes as ugly as a dog's rear end and skinning is entirely too complicated when you can just download a better looking app in the same amount of time. Waste of my money.
Need to be able to change the text on the Widgets. Having three Widgets named "Inbox" is not at all helpful. Also need a better way to specify which account/folder you are selecting for a widget. Again, having it simply say "inbox" without telling me which mail account it goes to is virtually worthless.
Best email widget app out there! Simple yet extremely useful. Better than Exec Asst. And now with Enhanced Email support, just perfect! SGS2
... and what's worse the developer never answered my THREE repeated emails asking for assistance. I waited more than a week to rate this app. If developer had simply responded to me, I wouldn't have had to resort to this. Now I'm sure I will never hear back so money flushed down the toilet.
I have a Samsuny Galazy S III....widget won't work with stock email but says it will work with Enhanced Email but not the case as I still get the same error message as I do with the stock android email. Seems to work with K9 but I can't get K9 to work with my exchange account.
With Jelly Bean, even with the tutorial in the webpage developer waste of money...
This is great and basically does what I needed, but there are two small things I'd like to see sorted out: 1 - I'd like to be able to scroll WITHOUT installing an alternative Home app. My other widgets can do this, so I'm sure this developer will also come up with a way to do it. 2 - There is a bug that when it is set to open the email when I touch the widget, instead of opening the one I'm on it opens one a long way down on my inbox.... So I have rather set it to open my email app Enhanced Email and then I work from there..... Otherwise great.
Terrible widget. Very disappointing. Feels cheap. Want my money back.
Will not let me download skins

SADLY this is the only widget that works with k9 mail :( styling is poor, scrolling does not work at all, the UI is poor, always shows "200 new" emails, unable to differentiate between read and unread emails, unable to show time when the email was received, unable to show a preview (excerpt) of the email.. There is a FREE app MailListWidget for K-9 mail but that one is no longer maintained and installation does not work on SOME devices.. But if it installs for you, GIVE it a GO, it is MUCH better!!!
