Hi there,
Thank you for using Outlook Mobile and sharing your ideas with us. We really appreciate your support.
It is currently possible to set an out of office message in the app for Exchange and Office 365 account.
To setup out of the office replies, tap settings > tap your Office365 or Exchange account > tap Automatic Replies > toggle the switch on.
You can choose:
1.) Reply to everyone
2.) Reply only to my organization
You can also set up a different messages for your organization and external senders.
Tap done once you have set up your automatic reply.
Having trouble finding the feature? Let us know through the Help section of the app. You may reach them by going to the app’s Setting > Help and Feedback > Contact Support
Thank you again for your support, we look forward to hearing more of your ideas very soon.
All the best
The Outlook Mobile Team

I can set my "out of office"/ automated responses email from the web app. I think we should be able to set it from the mobile app.

It's a common "musty have" for all users when out on holiday / business travel, etc.

The out of office setting is very hard to find. It's hidden behind a bunch of screens, not obviously on the settings screen. It is also missing features that owa has, like "cancel my meetings today" and "turn off at a specific time"

Touchdown had this feature and I used it all the time. I would forget to set my ooo until I was on vacation. Being able to do it on the app at the airport was so easy.

You have answered some other questions on this list without understanding the problem. PC version allows you to set times for OOO to come on and go off. Android version doesn't allow this. Why?
