How To Install the Solution using a Mobile Device¶
Note
Presently, due to a limitation in MS Outlook Mobile, LPC Add-In can only be used in MS Outlook for Android or iOS with Office 365 mail accounts, and not with MS Exchange accounts. At that, users’ data from MS Exchange accounts can handled using LinkPoint Connect(ME) synchronization, through auto-saving or the custom “Salesforce” category / folder / list, as described in this article
Note
LinkPoint Connect(ME) is not a stand-alone Android or iOS application, it is an Add-In installed in web, desktop, and mobile implementations of MS Outlook
