How to Configure Your Email on Android & iOS Using the Gmail App (IMAP)

In this guide, you will learn how to configure a professional email address (e.g., support@host.al) on an Android or iOS phone using the Gmail application via the IMAP protocol.

This setup allows you to manage your business email directly from the Gmail app on your phone.

Step 1: Open the Gmail App and Add a New Account

  1. Open the Gmail app on your phone.
  2. Tap Add account.
  3. You will see several email type options.

 4. Select Other (IMAP)

(Kjo përdoret për email-e që nuk janë Google, Outlook, Yahoo, etj.)

Step 2: Enter Your Email Address

In the field that appears:

  • Enter your full email address
    Example:
    support@host.al

Then tap Next.


Step 3: Configure the Incoming Mail Server (IMAP Settings)

In this step, you need to enter the IMAP server details.

Fill in the fields as follows:

  • Username:
    support@host.al ( your email address )
  • Password:
    (your email password)
  • IMAP Server:
    host.al (your domain name)
  • Port:
    993
  • Security Type:
    SSL/TLS

Important Note:

Port 993 is used for secure IMAP (SSL/TLS).
Do NOT use port 465 in this step, as port 465 is used for SMTP (sending email), not for IMAP.

After filling in all fields, tap Next.


Step 4: Configure the Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)

In the next step, you will configure the outgoing server settings.

Fill in the following:

  • SMTP Server:
    host.al (your domain name )
  • Port:
    465
  • Security Type:
    SSL/TLS
  • Require Sign-in:
    Aktiv (ON)
  • Username:
    support@host.al   (your email adress)
  • Password:
    (your email password)

Port 465 is used for secure SMTP (SSL)

Tap Next to continue


Step 5: Complete the Setup

Your webmail account is now successfully configured in the Gmail app.

Tap Next, and the setup process will be completed.
