Low Network Detection

As a mobile user, you often experience poor network or network unavailability issues when you are in remote areas, on an airplane Wi-Fi, or any congested network. These connectivity issues can cause slow or failed content downloads. Workspace ONE Boxer notifies you about such low network conditions so that you can either move to a new network with better connectivity or wait until your current network connectivity improves. You can also check for network issues that are outside of Workspace ONE Boxer's control.

Boxer informs you with the help of a banner on the Inbox screen when:
  • Your device goes offline.
  • Workspace ONE Boxer experiences slow network connectivity.
  • Workspace ONE Boxer fails to reach the Exchange Server for an account, despite having a secure internet connection.

If you do not want to see such a notification, you can deactivate the Low Network Detection option by navigating to Boxer Settings > Advanced > Enable features > Low Network Detection.

Mark External Addresses

Workspace ONE Boxer highlights any email addresses that are outside the specified domain when composing or responding to emails or creating a calendar event.
