You can currently customize Scheduling options in the app. To do this, swipe left or right (if “Schedule” is one of the swipe options set up in the app). Then it will show the options to schedule “Later Today”, “This Evening”, “This Weekend”, “Next Week” and the last option “Choose a Time”, which will allow you to enter your preferred date and time to schedule an email.

My new messages don't load until several hours after I get them and I've read them on another device. At that rate, they're not new anymore.

Bug in scrolling up an email thread
When you have a long thread of emails and you are trying to scroll up the thread, outlook automatically pages down to the end every few seconds. Hence it is impossible to scroll up and see the whole thread of emails.
Can we stop Outlook trying to get to the end of the thread every few seconds, specially when we are trying to manually scroll up the various thread replies.

Get rid of the separation from 'priority' and 'other'. The overview of e-mails does not improve, unfortunately.
After the addition of these catagories, I have to look in both catagories. If else, I do not see important messages of people. Instead of making hotmail easier, it becomes more difficult with 3 catagories. Ik think that one catagorie for inbox and a spam box is more than enough. Combine the 'priority' with 'other' section to one section please.

quick delete for junk mail folder
Allow the emptying of junk mail folder.
1 voteHi there,
Thank you for using Outlook Mobile and sharing your ideas with us. We really appreciate your support.
There are currently two quick and easy way to delete emails from the Outlook app.
Swipe to delete
Swipe the email to the left. By default, this will archive the email. However, you can customize Swipe Options in the Settings and change the action to Delete.
Bulk delete
This is very useful when you want to delete multiple emails at once. 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.
