A Do Not Disturb feature for "after hours"
A Do Not Disturb feature for "after hours" would be great. if you could allow custom times, e.g. 8pm - 6am, that would be even better.

Hi there,
You can now temporarily turn off your email notifications using the new Do not Disturb feature of the app. To do so simply tap on the 3 horizontal lines on the top left corner> Next tap on the bell icon next to the email address displayed or go to the “All Accounts” tab to set up do not disturb for all accounts connected to the app > Next choose the timed or scheduled option that best suits your needs.
If you have any questions or need assistance locating this feature please contact our in-app support team by going to Settings>Help & Feedback> Contact Support.
All the best
The Outlook Mobile Team
P.S. Please use the Help Section of the app for any questions, we are unable to see replies to this address.

Add others have said, please add option to disable outside of working hours (or maybe just an custom time interval). This can mean a world of difference for people trying to find a good work/life balance.

This item is not complete. Automatic DnD is available for weekends and work hours, but NOT for after hours, and there's no option to customize the times.

the answer here isnt what was requested. we want to turn notificatios off outside work hours, not during them. if you use a work email, why would you want notifications only outside work hours?

Please add weekday out of office hours option to the Do Not Disturb schedules.
It defies logic that you offer a During work hours and During weekends, but nothing for weekday outside work hours!! -

Hi Admin,
How can you mark this complete?
Their is no out of office hours in the choice of options you offer! You have during events, during work hours (why ?!?!) and during weekends. -
