Introduce a deadlines function for calendars to help users keep track of upcoming tasks. The "Meetings" function is not useful for this. A large number of academic institutions in the UK use Outlook. Students need visibility of deadlines.

I suggest you in Outlook, to have the possibility "to switch off" automatic deleting e-mail if e-mail is indicated as meeting invitation. Because very often "this kind of e-mails" - invitations, consists "meeting invitation link". And if you have connected/sync mobile phone with desktop comp, you can simply lose invitation link.

Is there a way to schedule a meeting using Teams with a static meeting id? I schedule weekly back to back one on one with my individual team members and I don’t want to have to leave one meeting just to have to join another. I want to schedule their meetings, I join and then they each join at their scheduled times. Is this possible?

It would be great if Outlook had similar functionality to Out of Office messages where a signature during a designated time period. For instance, we a company is promoting a special event, the "event signature" would drop off after the event is over and revert to the standard signature.

In Outlook for Mac, people who has permission stronger than reviewer can open the calendar, but people who are not Reviewer or under can’t view the calendar. Please make it possible for people who doesn’t has reviewer permission to open calendar with using Outlook for Mac.
Reviewer user to open calendar

.VCS or .ICS calender files should be importable into Outlook for Mac.

Could you please make it easer to jump from outlook directly into a teams conversation and the other way around?
It simply makes no sense to have the same calendar in two different tools with different interaction patterns.
Why do you even develop products with different interaction patterns for the same purpose? I mean really: I am a UX Designer and I just don't get what you are doing ... its kind of a pity.

When opening a high number of shared calendars for scheduling purposes, e.g. a manager's direct reports, it would be much, much easier to be able to group these calendars and expand/collapse as needed. Currently, you would have to open up the address book to verify who is on whose team, etc.

It would be great to have a feature that can force all calendar invites for meetings/appointments to have an alert/reminder. It doesn’t happen often, but at times a meeting organizer forgets to add a reminder alert and that can cause issues when attendees don’t get a reminder notification. Even having updating the code/program to look to see if there is an alert, and if there isn't one asking/suggesting an alert be added as one imports the new invite would be helpful instead of force.

I tried the new 2020 Outlook for Mac UI... it looked much better but when I tried to view coworkers calendars I could not see any other contact in my organization. When I set up a meeting, I couldn't even use scheduling assistant to see the invitees time conflicts for that meeting. I had to revert back to the older version because this is showstopper missing functionality.

When scheduling "focus time" in calendar, Cortana should allow me to schedule this time in a different color, so it is easy for me to see where I have "mental breaks" in the day or when I will be able to do my follow-up tasks from my meetings in the day.

I've described here with the details, would love to contribute down the line

When an outlook alert first appears on android it says "14 minutes until meeting starts"
However, if I look at my phone an hour later, it still says "14 minutes until meeting starts" which can be quite confusing, since it's no longer accurate.

Suggestion/feature request: update the alert time as a meeting approaches so that if you see your phone "after an alert" it will be accurate as to how much time is remaining.

why my calendar form Outlook dost't show up in Teams?

Please make it possible to hide the blue "current time bar" from the Outlook calendar, or just make it go away entirely! It is driving me nuts, and I just spent 30 min googling trying to find a way to hide it, but it seems there isn't one. Thank you for considering!

It would be great if there was the ability to select which calendar a new appointment is for from the appointment creation window, similar to creating new emails.
