# iOS

**iOS** is the mobile operating system developed by Apple. In the context of the Universität Greifswald's IT services, it is a supported platform for accessing university email and collaboration tools.

## Email Configuration
iOS is a supported mobile operating system for the configuration of the [[central-email-service]] at the Universität Greifswald.

## Groupware Synchronization
iOS devices can be configured to synchronize with the university [[groupware]] using standard protocols:

- **Calendars**: Configured via [[caldav]] (Settings $\rightarrow$ Mail, Contacts, Calendars $\rightarrow$ Add Account $\rightarrow$ Other $\rightarrow$ Add CalDAV Account).
- **Contacts**: Configured via [[carddav]] (Settings $\rightarrow$ Mail, Contacts, Calendars $\rightarrow$ Add Account $\rightarrow$ Other $\rightarrow$ Add CardDAV Account).

### Connection Details
Both the calendar and contact services utilize the server `groupware.uni-greifswald.de` and require the user's URZ ID and password for authentication.
