    Hi there,

     

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

    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.

     

    Having trouble finding the feature? Let us know through the Help section of the app in the Settings. (Settings > Help and Feedback > Contact Support). We’re here to help.

     

    Thank you again for your support, we look forward to hearing more of your ideas very soon.

  6. stop changing stuff

    why in the world would you add an icon below all my accounts to be able to add an account? How often does anyone add an account? Now moving mail in spam I have an extra click to get it into the Inbox. Stop the accounts from defaulting to All Accounts. If I wanted all my emails in one view I would have one email account. We have multiple email accounts because we need the mail separate. Now I have one more click to see Cc and Bcc. Now I have one more click to type the email address in.…

  11. Suddenly all of my emails are on background . I do not want this and struggle to read my emails now . change it back !

    suddenly all of the emails are on a black background. I do not want this as I can't read my emails properly now. change it back to a white background instead if having texts in multiple colours which make it difficult yo read visually .
