Bring back search field at top of inbox
Please let me search my inbox from a search field at the top of my inbox, instead of having to click the separate magnifying glass icon at the bottom, which is less efficient.

Classic view setting?
Can you guys offer a classic view for the outlook app? This new view is counterintuitive and 'focused' doesn't work. I want to see all my messages in inbox, not focused or other.
Thanks,
John

Shared calendar access.
This app doesn’t allow access to shared calendars like the old OWA did. Please address.
72 votesHi Outlook users,
We’re excited to announce that the Outlook on iOS application now supports shared calendars for Office365 and Outlook.com users!
If you already have a shared calendar, you’ll need to upgrade it so that it syncs to your mobile phone. It’s simple to do though: just ask the calendar owner to re-share the calendar to you, and then click the Accept button in the Outlook app. After accepting, you’ll be able to see the shared calendar on your mobile phone!
This feature is only available if both the calendar owner & the sharing recipient are hosted in Office365 or Outlook.com. And if you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out to the in-app support team by going to Settings > Help & Feedback> Contact Support and we’d be happy to help!
All the best

Maps integration with calendar doesn’t work
When you click on the address you entered in your calendar, it does open the maps app you chose as default but doesn’t show you the address or itinerary. I’ve tried with Waze, Google maps and Apple maps, and the problem remains the same

iphone outllook app does not work
Make outlook work on my phone! For months now, I have been regularly deleting and re-installing the Outlook App for the iPhone 6S. I have the most recent version of the app from the app store and also the most recent IOS. My outlook keeps crashing. I can get work emails from the native iphone email app just fine, but the Outlook app just does not work. It constantly says it is syncing emails, and then just crashes. The few times it does work, it crashes after a few minutes no matter what I do. It doesn't even save drafts…
