Reply All is default in new version. Default to reply, not reply all in add message
The default in the replying to a message is Reply All. This default should be able to be changed, otherwise we are going to have a lot of people accidentally replying all to mass emails / the entire org when they only meant to respond to the original sender.

For organizations that have to be HIPAA compliant the default reply all is a dangerous option that could lead to a higher chance of inadvertently sharing sensitive data. There should at least be an option to change this default.

If you search for "reply" in the suggestion list, this is really a top 3 request. How in 2021 is there not an option to default this to something less dangerous than Reply All? Does the app dev team not know the "Bedlam DL3" story?

I keep doing this to school emails where I work and constantly get into trouble. How do I change the default?

By default, the reply is reply to all in the Outlook app. This is very frustrating as I often reply to an e-mail and it’s sent to all other recipients, whereas my message is meant for the person sending the e-mail. My messages are often private and confidential. Please turn it off or make it obvious!

Make it so users have the option to change “Reply All” to just “Reply” as a default setting. Right now it defaults to “Reply All” when more than one person is in the recipient list of an email. I have seen lots of times when people didn’t realize this and sent out a reply to all.

Please change the default IOS Outlook reply setting in group email from reply all to reply. The present configuration sets the table for errors. At least warn the user that they are replying to all in a manner more evident than currently in the app. This is a great example of the saying: Every system is perfectly designed to get the results that it gets (from the IHI). Judging by the comments on the web when I tried to find a fix for this, I am not the only one who has had this issue. Many thanks.

Emails automatically default to reply all. Allow this default to be changed to just reply to avoid replying to groups in error

User option to change the reply all default - too many emails to too many people make the default non sensical.
Also have the reply be on top of the screen flowing down just like the desks top version - in fact as much of desktop that can be replicated bc that’s what we all use to begin with - would not be using the app if we didn’t. -

Reply All should never be the default button for group messages. This is a design flaw.

“Reply all” button is used less and most of time people accidentally send their mail to everyone when their get a mail that is sent to a lot of people. Every time we need to change it to “reply” button.

When responding to a group email, a prompt before sending to confirm you’d like to reply to all would be nice.

The text box in a rely should be a reply only not a reply all by default. You are literally risking people’s jobs who have never used the outlook app before. Ffs

I will have to change my mail app if this is not fixed. It makes absolutely no sense that reply all is the default. Way too big of a confidentiality risk to continue using this as is.

It is very dangerous and clogs the in box to have reply all as the default setting on the outlook app, unless this changes I will recommend we change our group from outlook

Such a bad idea for reply-all to ever be the default option. It is making it easy for people to accidentally send confidential data to un authorised people.

I can’t believe this has been an outstanding request for as long as it has. It’s been years since people have requested this and STILL microshaft think they know better than their users!!! Cmon you muppets fix this issue. LISTEN TO YOUR USERS COMPLAINTS AND JUST FIX IT!

When is this being changed?! Apple would have already fixed this feature with this many user complaints. Will someone in at Microsoft actually read this and do something?!!

100% default to reply rather than reply to all. Much safer

Turn off reply all as the default when you reply to an email with multiple recipients. It’s that simple.
