# Android

**Android** is a mobile operating system supported by the **Universitätsrechenzentrum (URZ)** for accessing university services at the Universität Greifswald.

## Email Configuration
Android is a supported mobile operating system for the configuration of the [[central-email-service]]. To set up the service, users are directed to use manual configuration settings.

The URZ provides a specific workflow using the [[k-9-mail]] client to ensure that the correct encryption ([[starttls]]) and server ports are utilized for [[imap]] and [[smtp]] connections.

## Network Configuration (eduroam)
The configuration of [[eduroam]] on Android is strictly app-based and depends on the OS version:
- **Android 10+**: Configured via the [[easyroam]] app.
- **Android $\le$ 9**: Configured via the [[eduroam-cat-app]].

Users must ensure that any legacy manual network profiles are removed before using these tools to avoid configuration conflicts.
