Synchronizing DejaOffice with the Android applications

DejaOffice stores data in a separate database than the Android contacts and calendar applications that came with the device. You can synchronize DejaOffice with the Android applications (the native contacts and calendar apps) so that you can utilize features like caller ID and voice dialing, along with any other 3rd-party software that works with the native contacts and calendar.

Enable Sync Between DejaOffice and the Android Applications

To turn on the synchronization between DejaOffice and the Android contact or calendar applications:

Sync with Android Contacts

Sync with Android Calendar

1. Open DejaOffice.
2. Tap Settings and Tap Sync Settings.
3. Tap the Sync with Android Calendar App option to Enable the "Native" Calendar Sync.

• Note: While DejaOffice supports a sync to the Android Calendar App, we do not recommend this as it can slow down the sync.
• Note: The Native Calendar app can have issues supporting larger data sets.
