How to Send an Email via JavaMail API - Android Studio Tutorial

Today, I’m going to show you how to send email from android app using java mail API. Watch to learn how it work and don’t forget to turn on your notifications!

First you need to create app password for send email from app.Follow the instructions.
Create & use App Passwords
Note: If you use 2-Step-Verification and are seeing a "password incorrect" error when trying to access your Google Account, an App Password may solve the problem.

Go to your Google Account.
On the left navigation panel, choose Security.
On the "Signing in to Google" panel, choose App Passwords. If you don’t see this option:
2-Step Verification is not set up for your account.
2-Step Verification is set up for security keys only.
Your account is through work, school, or other organization.
You’ve turned on Advanced Protection for your account.
At the bottom, choose Select app and choose the app you’re using.
Choose Select device and choose the device you’re using.
Choose Generate.
Follow the instructions to enter the App Password. The App Password is the 16-character code in the yellow bar on your device.
Choose Done.

Now Use this password for APP

Most of the time, you’ll only have to enter an App Password once per app or device, so don’t worry about memorizing it.

For those encountering errors. One way to solve this would be to enable less secure access in your google account. This is very easy to do just look it up online. nothing needs to be altered to your code. once less secure access is enabled then try to send your email again and see if it works

Hey brother! It works well! The problem is that Google gives me a warning through Gmail that someone tries to access your account, but it can work.

Man, Thank you! I've seen a few tutorials about this, but none worked for me properly, yours work like a charm(see P.S for solution for some problems). keep this video up and keep creating videos man!

P.S You should add the enable less secure and enable access captcha options, to avoid some security errors you might encounter.

is there away to get an event or some how to know when the email has been sent so I can for example close the page when it's sent?

[keikai]

Hello, May I know if I don't want enable less secure access for my account then is it possible for making it work by changing the code? Thank you.

This only works for me if I'm connected to a mobile network or however you call those. But it doesn't work when I'm connected to a private home wifi. Do you know why this is the case? Please don't ignore my comment.
