I have a Samsung 8s+ that I am trying to put a gmail account to my email icon folder NOT THE GMAIL ONE.

I am using FIDO as the service provider. When I go into email settings, I add my new email information and Password. When I hit sign in an error message pops up saying username/PW is incorrect or the POP3/IMAO access isn't turned on for this account.

I know userid and PW is correct so what's the issue? I went to Samsung to help me but they couldn't figure this out as well....

incoming server:
pop3 server
pop.gmail.com

security type:
SSL
PORT
995


outgoing server:
smtp.gmail.com

security type:
SSL

Port 465

thanks for your help RIBS

are you trying to add it to the default Samsung email app? and are you using full email addressin settings instead of just sn? (name@gmail.com vs name)

You probably have 2FA enabled so you'll need an app password to login.

Yes, I am trying to add this on the Samsung email app.
