  1. to make outlook app like outlook pc client that shouldn't chain all the emails with same subject in the single thread. it should appear 1by1

    that will make the search more easy also if you single email from one thread is being flagged, it won't flag all the emails on that thread. Also the emails would appear distinct and not clubbed all together

    It is currently already possible to perform bulk action in the app. To do this, long press on an email until a checkmark appears at the left of it. Once you’ve selected multiple emails, you’ll then be able to perform the following actions: deleting, marking as read, archiving. A “Select All” option will also appear in the top right corner.

    Thank you for using Outlook Mobile and sharing your ideas with us. We really appreciate your support.

    You can now move emails to any folder you wish including the Spam folder, by simply choosing the “more options” icon within the message (3 dots) > tap move> choose the folder you would like to move the email to. You can also move multiple emails by selecting them from the inbox view, tap the 3 dot icon > tap move then choose the folder you would like to move to. For outlook.com accounts only, sending items to spam will be picked up as a signal by our reporting team and will lead to the sender being blocked.

    We recently added the ability to have a badge count of all your unread conversations right on the app icon. To enable/disable this feature please go to the app settings> scroll down to badge count> from here you can choose to show a badge count for all emails, focused only, or turn it off completely.

    This feature is currently available for Samsung, Sony, and LG devices as well as for users running the Microsoft Launcher on their Android device.

    Having trouble with these features? Let our in-app support team know by going to settings> help & feedback > contact support. We are here to help!

  9. automatically discard draft messages that are empty.

    When someone mistakenly begins a new draft and they cancel the message, delete the draft if it's empty. Don't force the user to notice the little notification to delete it. This is just following the 80-20 rule here. Make the common use cases easier.

  12. Need a specific option to swipe email to spam/junk folder.

    At present there is a swipe option to move to a folder choice. It would be improved by allowing an additional choice to move the email to a specific folder such as spam/junk. It is a 2 step process now. It would be more convenient as a 1 swipe process.

  15. fix bug that causes new email notification to sound continuously until viewing or clearing.

    You want a sound notification when you get a new email. you don't want the notification to sound 30 times for each individual email. it's like a stutter notification that keeps sounding on repeat until you click to stop it.
