Search function for GAL references on OWA
The ability to refer to GAL on OWA has been restored.
However, it is very inconvenient for tenants with more than 50 people, even if they can refer to GAL but have no search function.
I just want the same functionality as the desktop Outlook.
I am confident that this request will be approved by many users.
Best Regards,
6 votesThe ability to search your directory when using the GAL/Contact Picker has been made available.

Buggy as ****.
How do I report a bug? Outlook (web app) has become incredibly buggy since the latest update. This is NOT business class. This is amateur at best.
0 votesHi there, please feel free to report any issues/bugs or feedback directly here. We are watching and addressing everything as it comes across.
Thanks

No option to Delete an Email Address on the "FROM" Email list.
There is no option to Delete an Email address on the "FROM" suggestions list.
Unlike the desktop version where there's an X button to do it.
0 votesThanks for using Outlook on the Web. You can actually delete a suggested contact. If you hover over the suggestion there should be a little x to the right that you can click on to delete.
thanks

Remove external site access (current weather) from calendar.
Remove external site access (current weather) from calendar.
That's a privacy violation ... beside it displays the weather for who-knows-where, certainly no my location!0 votesHi there, Thank you for providing feedback. You are able to disable weather on the calendar if you desire.
An end user can do it via going into the Settings (Great in the top right) and search for weather. There is then a toggle to turn it off.
As an admin you can also disable it for all users in your organization if you desire by making changes to the OwaMailboxPolicy.
Thanks

Remove the circular color blob icon from all people and groups
Remove the circular color blob icon from all people and groups. It is just visual clutter, scales poorly, and so effectively serves no useful purpose.
1 voteHi there, thank you for the feedback! If you would like to disable the sender photos you can do that from the Settings menu in the top right (Gear).
From there search for sender photos. Once it is off, you should no longer see the circles/or photos.
Thank

Opening Calendar from Mail opens Calendar in new tab
I don't like that it opens Calendar in a new tab which consumes more resources. It is much easier to navigate between Mail and Calendar when they exist on the same tab.

Hey thanks for your feedback. We’re transitioning all our users over to this new experience.
We’ve put popular settings into our new Quick Settings pane (click the settings gear in the header to access it), which may help you personalize your experience and enjoy OWA a little more.

Dark mode needs dark compose
Dark mode needs to include message compose. Currently UI is dark but new compose message is eye searing white.
130 votesHi all – Just wanted to let you know that as of today we are starting to roll out support for dark compose. This will mean you don’t have to have the white screen when writing an email.
Also this week you should now be able to select themes when you have dark mode enabled!
Thanks for the awesome feedback and suggestions.

Office 365 less user friendly than previous versions of Office!
I have used MS since 3.11 and office since W95 as a regular user you expect updated versions to be easy to follow not so W10 or Office 365 nothing logical in either! MS have certainly turned me off - going complete Mac from now on!
38 votesHey, I’m sorry to hear that you didn’t have a good experience in OWA.
There are a number of settings that you might configure to make your experience more enjoyable. If you don’t like the colored icons for each user, try setting Display Density to Compact. Or if you don’t like focused inbox, try turning that setting off. You can also change the location of the reading pane, turn conversation view on/off, and many more settings!
You can access these settings by clicking on the settings gear in the header. You can also open full settings – using the link at the bottom – to see all of our settings.

Keep within the same tab/window.
In the old outlook web interface, switching between mail and calendar kept everything in the same tab or window. In the new outlook web interface, everytime I switch between mail and calendar it opens a new tab. This is *really* annoying.

Too much going on in the left column. Keep it simple.
1. Keep it simple. Less is more 2. The font size is too big. It slows me down when searching for an email.
47 votesThanks for your feedback!
One way that you might be able to solve this problem is opening the Settings pane (click on the gear icon in the header) and setting Display Density to Compact.

Hi all! Again thanks for the feedback on this!
I just wanted to let everyone know that this has been fixed and the change is in the process of being fully rolled out. A good portion of you should be able to see the ability to open up a mail from a shared mailbox in a new window working now. The fix should be fully deployed to everyone by Monday morning.
Thanks again

Calendar Appointments Can't Be Edited
