Microsoft has launched updates to its mobile apps on iOS and Android. Although these updates were rolled out around the same time, they bring different new features and improvements to each app.
For example, Outlook for iOS is getting some new features and improvements, while the Android version is receiving a bug fix and several improvements to existing features
New features
A new Report Message has been added to the Swipe Actions menu.
Local account support has been added for Box.
Improvements
Compose - You can now resend messages from the Sent folder.
Calendar - Teams Meetings chat is now available from event details in the Calendar.
Improvements
Events: Users can search for events up to one year ago instead of six months.
Search: You can now search Teams chat messages from the new Teams tab in the search menu. Tapping on a message will open Teams Mobile for that message in the thread. If the user doesn't have Teams Mobile, they will be directed to the Play Store.
Compose: You can now resend messages from the Sent folder.
Calendar - Teams Meetings chat is now available from event details in the Calendar.
Bug fixes
We fixed an issue that prevented the single sign-on flow for Microsoft 365 accounts from being successful in some cases.
Apart from all the changes included in these updates, Microsoft has revealed more new features and improvements coming to Outlook mobile.
For example, Android users will get updated chat actions in August. Currently, users can access the available actions in the top-right corner, but they will be moved to the bottom of the screen with the ability to customize the order and placement of actions.
On the other hand, Microsoft has confirmed its plans to add search to the setting in Outlook for iOS, as the update scheduled to arrive in August adds the ability to search within settings so that users can find exactly what they are looking for. This feature will also be available on the Android system, but it is scheduled to arrive a month early.
