  4. Click ‘Install now’. After successful installation, you can start to use the app immediately.

Unlike other Mail apps from Outlook/Gmail, AOL app doesn’t allow you to add 3rd party emails to the app. So, AOL mail app is a good app for AOL user only, but for people who use multiple email services, it may not be suitable.

    I can’t get signed it on AOL. It asked me to re-enter my password, I did that. Then they sent me a code and I entered that and it still won’t let me in. If I can’t get this fixed I’ll have to go with another server. I’ve been with aol for 25 years and this is the first time I can’t get service can’t get a phone number can’t get help thanks

      Sometimes the old “turn it off and on again” actually works. In this case, try completely signing out of your account then sign back in. Many times, this will help, especially in cases of bad passwords or some simple browser issues.
      You can also try signing from another web-browser.
