Spell check
Need a better spell check feature that highlights words not spelled right.

Hey everyone! Thank you for your patience and apologize for any frustrations. While All bugs have been resolved on Apple’s end, the spell checker inside the app is linked to your device and keyboard settings. However, due to limitations in the Outlook mobile app, this feature is currently only available when using the quick reply option. To vote / comment on the spellcheck feature in the compose screen please go to the following link: https://outlook.uservoice.com/forums/293349-outlook-for-ios/suggestions/34198510-spell-check-in-the-compose-screen-view
If you have any questions, please contact us inside the app at Settings>Help & Feedback> Contact support we look forward to assisting you. :-)

Wrong spelling or writing is not highlighted while composing an email in mobile app.
This is an old issue ! Thanks -

Again, the app is useless without spellcheck and it is not on Apple side. Other 3rd party apps like NineFolders are supporting spellcheck in german and english. Really zero stars Rating without this feature. Even kn this comment section you provide spellcheck but not while composing emails. Funny kind of humor.

Spellcheck still doesn’t work in the body of the email. This is a massive reason I can’t use outlook as my work email.
I have reported this problem over 1 year ago and still no result. Why is this so hard?
What’s crazy is spellcheck works in this suggest a feature section.

It would be helpful if you an underline, highlight or point out words that are misspelled.
Unfortunately, words go unnoticed.

Why does spell check not work in outlook on my ipad? This seems like it should be a basic feature.

If spellcheck is already in the quick reply then it should take 5 seconds too turn on. Why an idea to vote on? Just turn it on, it is a required feature of email
