Overview
Kerio Connect user accounts can be configured on Android devices. The native Android settings provide only the Exchange account type. The CalDAV and CardDAV Calendar and Contacts configuration can be achieved using 3rd-party applications, such as One Calendar, CardDAV sync free, or DAVx5.
Note: On Kerio Connect Servers running versions prior to 9.4, you may encounter a broken "integration with the device" link referencing the Kerio Connect Sync App.
The Kerio Connect Sync app was removed from the Google Play Store some time ago and is no longer officially supported. This broken link has been updated in the 9.4 release to reflect that a 3rd-party solution should be used instead.
Please note that GFI/Kerio has no affiliation with these 3rd-party application vendors and does not provide support for such applications.
