Multiple choices of colors, background and themes like black theme in Desktop Outlook 2016
Multiple choice of colors and themes like black theme in Desktop Outlook 2016. Also provide an option of feature to reduce too much white space used in Microsoft Outlook. The new outlook is very complicated. Unfortunately I was forced to upgrade to outlook 2016 and Windows 10, otherwise I would have kept the old version of outlook. Microsoft need to consider people feedback and make material changes to outlook in order for users to be able to use it in the most efficient way. Right now, I am finding difficulties in using this outlook. Outlook should be more colorful like the old version so users can distinguish between mailbox, folders, junk, recycle…etc. Users should be able to easily find folders and folders with new version of outlook, just like old version. New version is all white and gray and doesn’t allow users to easily find required options. Also layout should be more efficient and unnecessary options must be removed. It’s important for Microsoft to understand that outlook is used for business purpose and users with high volume of work/tasks will not be able to easily coop with their work using a complicated outlook. Outlook layout look very busy and they are so many options. Bring old version back. It was easier to work and handle emails. Also an option to match color schemes or themes with an organization’s color themes would enhance customization.

figure out a way where we can change the color of the interface. (i.e. how youtube lets you turn on a "dark mode") .
Different Colors.
Client choice of color for background and/or inboxes and folders.
Have a "Night Mode" Setting already on the task bar for easy toggle for people who work at night.
Option for font type (maybe 6)
Animated background options. (water, lava, space stars, time warp, sand, beach, clouds, storm, etc.)
Thank you so much.

Current dark theme is not properly designed for all Office 365 Products like Outlook, Word, Powerpoint etc. Please provide proper theme with clear visible letters and fonts with coloring.

Outlook looks very bland as it is mostly white. There should be more colour in the application, like other Office apps such as Word, PowerPoint, etc. Also, the theme colour should be changed as blue looks like Word.

It's simple. stop charging extra for a little color added to email messages in reading pane in Outlook. I understand you want to get people to use 365, but honestly the color tone change could easily be considered an accessibility option for those people whose eyes don't like getting blasted every day with bright white monitor glare! Come on Microsoft DO THE RIGHT THING here.. and avoid the label people like to give you of Micro$oft... add all the other new features you want to 365 exclusively after that but the dark mode feature helps eye sight for those having to read email all day and you know this. It's included for free on mac office 2019, but you want to charge people extra for 365 if they would prefer using 2019 version? come on man! unbelievable. how much $ is enough? look at the world today and think about that. ✌

enable ability to switch back to classic outlook such as Outlook 2007/2010. The buttons and clickable options make more sense.

I like idea of dark mode to reduce the brillance of a white background, but would it be possible to have a deep blue or dark blue option?
Thank you -

When reading an ebook, I really like the Sepia setting, since it isn't as glaring as the white background, but isn't so dark/black it is almost hard to read.

On 2/10, inside Outlook Options --> General --> Personalize your copy of Microsoft Office, I changed my Office Theme to "Black" which now updated as I wanted to include making the message background black as well with white text (Note: "[ ] Never change the message background color" was unchecked). A vast improvement over how it previously made everything black with a glaring white message area.
Today, 2/24, not only do I no longer see the "[ ] never change the message background color" option, but also now my "Black" theme includes a glaring white message background area instead of black background with white text as it was on 2/10.
I am assuming some update broke or removed this functionality, but I was so excited to finally have it working how I wanted and now today it is back to being unusable for my purposes.

Outlook 2007 was soo lovely and colorful and easy on the eye. This new outlook is as exciting as watch paint dry. Things should be getting better as technology improves but here we retrogressing. Absolutely ugly and difficult to navigate with large volumes of emails. PLEASE Bring back the old look. Loved it
