Android address book synchronization

CardDAV provides full access to address book contacts (read, edit, delete). Setting it up involves installing the DAVx⁵ (paid) and adding the directory account to your mobile device.


1. Activating synchronization in webmail
All webmail address books are available for synchronization, so no activation is needed. You can select a specific address book directly in the synchronization application.


2. Adding an address book and calendar in DAVx⁵ 
Download application from Google Play and install it. 

Launch the application and click on the + Create account in the bottom right corner.
 
Select Login with URL and user name and continue the wizard.

Click on the LOGIN button to verify the credentials you entered.

On the following page, enter an account name and click Create Account to exit the wizard.

After adding the account, both the synchronization of webmail contacts and calendars (if they were selected in step 1) will work. In the following steps, select only the data sources you want to synchronize. 

On the CALDAV tab, select the calendars you want to sync.

On the CARDDAV tab, select the address book folders you want to sync.
