Connect for Hotmail

Connect for Hotmail does everything that you would expect from a modern email client app and a little more. You can use the app to check your Hotmail mail, browse your incoming e-mails, reply to them, and contact anyone who has a working email address. The app can also download the messages to your phone’s memory so that you can read them later in the offline mode.

Connect for Hotmail also allows you to configure the app’s notifications, so you can choose what’s more important for you: never missing an e-mail or saving mobile data traffic and phone’s battery life.
