Setting Up EagleApps for your Phone or E-mail Client

Before you set up a mobile device (phone) or e-mail client be aware of the following:

  • In the directions provided by Google, where the directions say "@gmail.com" or "@your_domain.com", you will actually need to enter "@uwlax.edu" without the quotes.
  • When asked for your username you will need to enter in your full email address (e.g. smith.john@uwlax.edu).
  • When asked for your password use your EagleApps password.  If you need to set or reset your EagleApps password click here.
