Is Maildroid Pro Worth the $17.99

[howlingwind]

Does MailDroid have a text to speech option?

Will I see all the features in the 'free' version ?

Only IMAP Idle servers support push and EWS for exchange.

 

[maildroiddev]

No, sorry, not at this time.

 

[maildroiddev]

Most of them, yes.

Aquamail - better UI, airpushed mail, cheaper.

I have tried both Aquamail and Maildroid. I liked them very much. I decided to buy Aquamail Pro for $4.85. $19.95 is a bit much for an email client. If MaildroidDev read my msg, I would pay $5 or a little more. Ads "free" version won't do me.

Thanks.

K9 for me all the way. I have Gmail, Yahoo, and company ISP mail thru K9 and never had an issue. Got to say the developer issue of K9 (4.33) is much nicer than Playstore version (4.20). Much better ui/theme, a "send" button where you need it, tons of font size tweaks.

Never tried Maildroid, but never spent more than $2.99 for an app and probably never will. For $18 it must be great!

You need to use what works best for you.

I tried the free version for a couple days and tonight I bought the Pro version. I am able to setup all my email accounts except for my company's email account. I did contact the dev and he replied quite quickly to make some suggestions. If I can get this one issue resolved, great. If not, I'm still happy with the Pro version for what it offers.

You should give K9 a try it also has several good features in comparison to Maildroid. Before buying the pro version I think you should try K9

I've tried the GMail app, the Samsung built-in email client, K-9, ProfiMail, and MailDroid. K-9 may look better than all of them, but MailDroid does exactly what I need it to do. I'm buying the Pro version today. It's worth every cent.

I went with K-9. Maildroid wouldn't want to connect to my ISP's mailserver, while K-9 connected almost instantly.

That is why an ad version exists, so you can try it first. But, I also reply to emails for support, so you can email me if you wanted some help.

I just downloaded the free version of MailDroid and I love it. It quickly set up my two hotmail accounts. I may add my gmail account later. The best part is, for every email you receive on your device, you can choose to either delete it from the device only, or from the device AND server (saving you time back at your desk!)

My only problem now is finding a way to sync my Hotmail calendar events. I really need this, because I use Windows Live Mail and prefer the Hotmail calendars.

I'd like to have a separate calendar app to do this, but so far the ones I've downloaded are not enabling Hotmail calendar. When I went to check my settings, for some reason my Samsung Galaxy Prevail is only allowing google accounts to be added (in the "Settings" > "Accounts & Sync" )

Anybody have an idea how to get my Hotmail calendar events to my Droid?

Thanx, sorry this is outside the thread a little.

By the way, I may be looking into upgrading to MailDroid Pro as well.
