The past few days I am not getting emails synced. Login is fine, sync period is a few weeks, sync upon receiving a new email. 

Going into the app manually shows last sync hours ago, but instantly syncs simply from opening the app. 

Until the other day, I had no issues at all. Now I missed an important email from work.
Add this to the pile of broken apps critical to some of us.

Samsung Email Version 6.2.15.11


Update: Since the mods think the below interaction was a solution (it wasn't) I will update the main post with a workaround they kindly deleted as a reply.

Under the settings for a given email, open "Email sync schedule." 
Then set it to its lowest time that isn't auto., which for me is 15min.

Sucks since they come in delayed or late, but beats having to manually go in and risk missing something important.

      Unsync and resync the emails, uninstall/reinstall, full shutdown and restart. You name it.

      There is nothing else I have in my bag of tricks. I am having no issues with Samsung email. I am on the same version.

      You can try to clear cache in storage on the info page.

      I love the Samsung email and calendar apps. I used to use Microsoft Outlook, but it gave me too many problems, and there is nothing I can't do with them that I used to do in Outlook.

      All of a sudden, the Samsung email widget app, when stretched out to full height on my desktop, doesn't show when I have new emails. I have to go into the app to check. 

      Anyone else having this issue?
