A custom mobile Outlook add-in is not loading, which is working well in the Outlook Web
We have created a manifest file by following the link as mentioned in the Microsoft Documentation https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/office/dev/add-ins/outlook/mobile-event-based?tabs=jsonmanifest and uploaded to O365 admin for using it in Web application and mobile application, but Add-in is not showing in the Mobile application Add-in list. I have tried clearing cache in the mobile app and also tried PowerShell Command Set-OrganizationConfig -OutlookMobileGCCRestrictionsEnabled $false but it is not working. My questions are: Have we missed anything after deployment or in the Manifest file? Do we need to run any other PowerShell commands to display the application in the Mobile Outlook Add-in list? In some forums it was mentioned that the Add-in needs to be Whitelisted, is there any such thing. If so, how to do that? Please suggest us on how to proceed and help us with this manifest file (Add-in) to be working in the Outlook mobile application.
Meeting series disappearing after declining single item
Hi, There's been an issue with reocurring meetings which I can't seem to find a solution to. When declining a single item of a meeting series - e.g. canceling it for a vacation - the whole series disappears from the calendar. This affects the Outlook Calendar as well as the Teams Calendar and local calendar apps such as the Samsung Calendar App. The user isn't removed from the meeting, it just isn't shown in the calendar apps. Does anyone have a similar issue? I've not been able to find a solution on the Internet anywhere. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated. Thank you very much!

Automatic Activation of Automatic Responses when selecting "Out of Office" as the Appointment Status
Why doesn't outlook automatically activate "automatic responses" when an user sets an appointment on the calender with an "out of office" status. Literally the entire premise for automatic responses is for when an user is out of the office, so how is this not an existing feature? Another option would be to have a checkbox or an option to select "send automatic responses" when creating the appointment, or upon selecting "out of office" as the "show as" status.Outlook for Windows: Timelines, Benefits, and Feature Availability
Yes, some end-users either "love or just hate" New Outlook for Windows. However, it is here to stay (respectfully said), and I am here to help you with the transition. Microsoft has announced the next stage, Opt-Out Stage, dates for 2025 and 2026 for work and school accounts. I have created a video that discusses my perspective on "What's Ahead in 2025 and Why It Matters" for you and your organization. I also cover feature availability by status. Video: https://youtu.be/QJBf_FPyBKk Remember, for the free Outlook accounts, the transition starts in January 2025, when you can no longer return to Classic Outlook. I have a video playlist with tutorials if you are interested. 📹Video Playlist: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLz10kTfM1gnF3x6mcGVfMX-51urg9a1lt&si=jrzVMJ9ikh0RPY1U 📹Outlook Updates Playlist: New Outlook Updates - YouTube traccreation4e 10/10/2024
Outlook Mobile Delegate can Access Private Items
Hello all, I have the following challenge as an M365-Admin, please help me find a solution: The management team in my company have assistants. The assistants are given Full Access to the EXO Mailbox via the EXO AC. When a person from management team is sending emails which are marked as private they (the assistants) connot see these emails on their desktop outlook client - but when they access the delegated mailbox via outlook for android or ios (or on the web), they can see/view the private messages. what is the reason for that and how can i fix this? Thanks in advance
Mobile app Sub folder notifications
We have pushed all our users to use Outlook mobile apps on iOS and Android, however many are complaining that they have created rules on the Outlook desktop client to put emails in certain sub folders (i.e. all emails from my manager go into a sub folder) and not getting notifications. As the email is moved to the folder before it gets to the client, the mobile apps do not display a notification. As a work around I've had to set up some Flows so that if email received from a certain email address, it displays a notification. The user can then open Outlook and go to the relevant folder. Its not pretty. This seems like a basic feature, its available in the iOS and Android stock mail apps which most used before we pushed them to Outlook. Any plans on the mobile apps to have notifications for sub folders?Outlook Mobile Features
Hello everyone. My firm has recently moved from Blackberry Work to Outlook Mobile with Intune for our mobile email solution (yes we are using the other features of Intune as well). I cannot seem to find anything about two features that a couple of partners have asked about. Blackberry Work had the ability to click on an email and create a calendar entry from it with the body of the email in the calendar info and any attachments would get automatically attached to the calendar entry. Is there a way to do this in Outlook Mobile? On the desktop there is a QuickPart that you can add to your menus to do it but I don't see anything on the Mobile app. On the desktop app you can hit Send and File for an email which sends the email and then lets you file the email to a folder. Is there a way to do this on the mobile app? I've looked and cannot find anything? Is there a way to BCC yourself automatically on all emails sent from the Outlook Mobile app? If these features do not exist... Microsoft you should add them. The mobile app is so similar to the desktop app, I am surprised that there are things that are missing from the mobile app (like the Notes in Outlook desktop). So weird. Also, why doesn't Outlook automatically populate your mobile app with the desktop signatures? Seems an easy thing to do. Regards, -Frank
