Keep Notes Section In Calendar Event
When making a calendar event in the current Outlook.com there is a section to add notes. This is missing in the Beta Calendar. Notes are visible in the Beta from entries made in the current Outlook.com Calendar but you are unable to edit them. I use the notes section to remind me of details about calendar events. The loss of this option would force me to use a different Calendar app/service.

Thank you for your feedback! The deployment for notes in a calendar event in the Outlook.com beta is now complete. If you refresh, you should be able to see the experience.

Add the ability to add notes or details to calendar events.

It must be really, really hard, as it's been 7 months without a peep. Oh, wait. It isn't.

Where can we put event details in the new beta calendar? That is a necessary feature, especially for recurring/ and any event you need more details. Often I copy a schedule, or what the event is about from an email and paste into the details section on the calendar so I can just look at the event on the day/week of rather than hunt for an old email. We really need to be able to put details in any calendar event/appointment. Please fix this massive missing element before making beta the end all be all for all your users. Thank you!

It is crazy that this is still missing from the Outlook beta!

I still can't add notes to a calendar appointment in this beta version. Such a huge step backward! Makes Outlook Calendar unusable.

I completely agree, it would force me to change to a different service as I rely on that feature.

Calendar event creation in the beta do not allow me to leave notes for the events. Please add this in. Every time I have to add notes on a calendar event, I have to leave the beta, do it, and then turn the beta back on. That's not good.

Having no Notes section is a serious omission. Will have to use Classic view until this is resolved.

Ditto. C'mon Microsoft. This is not good for your brand.

What about status on this "feature"?
Do you still have plans to add?
Or do you already "killed" the plans and try to avoid to communicate?
Shouldn't be so hard to write about, or isn't it? -

Please bring back the ability to add notes to calendar entries. This is one of my most-used features and the only reason I'm considering switching to Google for my calendar.

How is this still not a thing yet? How are we still even in Beta after all this time?

This should never have been removed - or are you all used to meetings with no agenda or details (which would explain your mind-boggling development decisions - such as removing this in the first place...)

I need the notes section that was removed in the beta or I can not continue to use outlook calendar.

Will there be a note section so I can put notes about the event such as who would be there and what would be talked about and reason and how it connects and other notes I want to take down?

How do I add notes to a meeting? It is not clear how to do this and the loss of this functionality is just not ok.
