Update my email settings to Exchange in Gmail on Android
If you migrated a POP or IMAP email account to Microsoft 365, export your previous locally saved data and set up your new account with Exchange settings. Using Exchange ensures your data — including mail, contacts and calendars — stays connected with your email and is recoverable from the server whenever needed.
- Open Gmail.
- In the upper-right corner, tap your profile.
- If you're ready to remove your POP/IMAP account, tap Manage accounts on this device.
- Tap your email account, and then Remove account. Tap Remove account to confirm.
- To add your Exchange account, tap your profile again, and then Add another account.
- Tap Exchange and Office 365.
- Enter your Microsoft 365 email address, and then tap Next.
- Enter your password, and then tap Sign In. (You might need to choose your account type as Work or School to continue.)
- If your admin enabled multi-factor authentication (MFA), verify your account or set up the Authenticator app.
- You might need to tap Accept to allow Gmail to access your account.
- When your account is ready, tap Done.
Your email is now set up as an Exchange account!
