Install the Outlook App on your Mobile Device
All Office 365 users have access to use the Outlook app for iOS and Android. Outlook for iOS and Android lets you manage your Penn Carey Law email accounts, calendars, contacts, and files without switching between different apps.

Attention Android users! In order to connect this device to your work email, calendar, or contacts, you must have a 4-digit PIN (or longer password) configured. A pattern lock will not work as it is not compatible with Exchange (email/calendar) servers.
