Iphone X App is my problem. I can't even add a second account to test whether it's related to icloud or not. the app opens the window to add another account but doesn't let me actually fill in the information because it has problems communicating with the server I suppose - whatever you use when adding an account. The only field I can select is the Assing Account Colour. So it seems the App has multiple issues.....

That's odd. No idea.
The whole app is just a website which we wrapped up to make it look like an app. You can also get to it via http://mailwasher.firetrust.com/ on your browser, so if that works, then it should work in the app. Plus if you saw it working on IOS, then it should work the same in Android unless there's something screwy going on with the Android browser.

Ref: IOS on various devices - iphone and ipads - Been having this problem ''Unable to contact server'' for a month or so now. Will work on wifi but not on Vodafone UK network 3G or 4G whilst still able to connect to Internet and use web. Does not work for any email addresses that I have registered on it. Has worked fine for me for many years. Is this to do with the Server certficates which RusticDog mentioned some time back may need refreshing?
All working well on wifi though. Any ideas how to fix it? Have tried turning devices off fully and logging in from fresh. ??!! Help please.

Yep, sorry about this folks. We had an issue and it's working again, hopefully that's the end of that issue.

Thanks Nick. Maybe, in future, when you know you have an issue like this you could post a note immediately on the forum so we know that you know??

Hi There

Am having issues with my mail washer mobile app (version 2.0.0) on iPhone 8Plus (iOS version 12.4)
For the last 24 hours it’s been ”unable to access server” & won’t sync with my email account to retrieve emails (just hangs)
Have tried ”logging out” of the then back in as wells as restarting my iPhone, but problem still remains.
Also ran the email accounts ”Sync” from my desktop PC Mailwasher program which indicated sync successful!?
Any assistance would be much appreciated.

Is it working for you now shazinoz2 ? We had some issues a few hours ago and required a server restart.

Thanks
