The Samsung Galaxy Tab 4 is a great tool for keeping track of your email messages using the pre-installed Email app. Before you start using the Email app, you should be familiar with the settings of the app and change settings accordingly so the app works best for you. If you haven’t started the Email app, swipe to the second Home page, and then tap Email, as shown in Figure 1. This article presumes you have already set up an email account on your Tab 4.
