This forum focuses on the OWA apps designed to deliver first class email experiences on mobile platforms such as iOS and Android (“OWA for Devices”). Show your support for existing suggestions or make new suggestions. Either way, you get 10 votes to cast for the changes you want. We may reach out to you via the contact information you provide to request further information or clarification about your feedback.

Please note that participation here is totally voluntary and the suggestion box is monitored. If your submission isn’t a suggestion, it might be removed.

How can we improve OWA for iPhone/iPad?

You've used all your votes and won't be able to post a new idea, but you can still search and comment on existing ideas.

There are two ways to get more votes:

When an admin closes an idea you've voted on, you'll get your votes back from that idea.
You can remove your votes from an open idea you support.
To see ideas you have already voted on, select the "My feedback" filter and select "My open ideas".

Enter your idea or suggestion

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

If a similar idea already exists, you can support and comment on it.

If it doesn't exist, you can post your idea so others can support it.

Enter your idea and we'll search to see if someone has already suggested it.

Notifications/Sound Alerts

It would be more convenient if the app notified the user with a sound when he/she receives a message. Also, the app could display the number of unread messages the user has (when the app isn't open).

"Downloading Update"

For the past few days the app has said:
"Downloading an app update. This may take a few minutes"

No emails will open and this message will not disappear. Please fix!

signing out / sign out / logoff / logout of the app

Why is it sooooooooo hard to sign out? It should NOT be that difficult signing out from the OWA app. It's almost impossible

Attachments / "Open in..." OWA for Devices

... is to be a target for an "Open in..." from other apps. Otherwise there is no way to add attachments.

And while you're at it, it might be helpful if the app was willing to "Open in..." attachments that it doesn't necessarily need to know how to open itself. Mindmaps, for example. I'd love to "Open in..." them in iThoughts.

OWA app stopped displaying message contents

All the sudden the OWA app for iPad does no longer display the contents of a message on the right side of the screen.
The message list shows as before, but no contents in the reading pane.
Even selecting the reading view, no contents is displayed, on any message.
I reinstalled the app, but no change.
