14 DAY TRIAL // Samsung has just released a new application to the Google Play Store, one that comes with multiple productivity tools and features. Samsung Focus is now available for download on Samsung smartphones and tablets that run Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow or above.
There have been rumors regarding Samsung Focus for quite some time now. Back in May, the app was believed to debut with the new Galaxy Note 7, but that didn't happen. Samsung has decided to release the app now, but just as mentioned above, it will only work on Samsung devices running Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow or later.
The application allows Exchange ActiveSync, IMAP and POP3 users to better manage their emails, calendar entries and tasks. It can also be used with memos and offers Direct Push synchronization with Exchange ActiveSynch.
Samsung Focus comes with unified search and support for conference calls
Focus also offers unified search for finding emails, events, memos, tasks and contacts faster. It also comes with an unread count tool that notifies users of how many unread emails and messages they have received inside the application. Aside from this, it has the ability to add events or tasks to emails.
The app connects to the actual email servers and allows users to store content on their devices, but it doesn't operate any cloud servers.
Samsung Focus can join conference calls with supported devices as well. In addition, it supports multiple servers, including Exchange Server 2003 SP2/SP3 and above, Google, Naver (IMAP/POP3), Office 365, Hotmail, Outlook.com, Exchange ActiveSync: IBM Notes Traveler, Groupwise, Kerio, Zimbra, Horde, IceWarp, MDaemon, and more.
It seems that the application isn't available in all countries and it may take some time until users from all over the world will be able to download it. However, the app has been well received on the Play store, gathering just about 500 downloads, with an overall 4.4-star rating.
