Ratings and reviews

Ever since the last update the app constantly runs in the background and is constantly attempting to sync. An icon shows up un the notification bar that says "synching emails" but it does not go away. I've been able to get the notification to go away by toggling the "sync email notifications" off and back on in the notification channel settings. The notification comes back within hours and the app is still constantly running in the background no matter what I do. Battery drains, phone is hot.

Update: App is constantly syncing since the update 2 days ago.

Ever since 5/1 or 5/2. The samsung email app remains '1 active in background'. Even when you stop it and close the app all together. It will just be pop right back up '1 active in the background' shorty after. Also it seems like you can't re-size the widget. Really hope an update to fix these issues comes sooner rather then later. bc constantly be 'active in background' will or could drain battery.

What's new

. Improve security algorithms when authenticating accounts
. Masking account info on notification to enhance security.
. Apply the latest UX and stabilize functions
. Added user notification mark for background synchronization process according to Android sync policy.
