Syncing Lightning with Android?

more options

I just upgraded Thunderbird to 38.1.0 and noticed it now includes the LIghtning add-on.

Before I consider it as an alternative to Outlook, does it sync with Android, and through USB?

Thank you.

There's no built in sync capability. I use WiFi and the Internet and Google Calendar (and Google Contacts). Your Android device may come with PC software that lets you synch, but such programs rarely recognize Thunderbird.

I have never used it myself so you'll have to decide for yourself if it looks promising.

Thanks for the info.
