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".
(thinking…)

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.

  3. Being able to edit Forwarded/Reply email threads

    You can't seem to edit a previously emailed thread when forwarding or replying to that thread, in the OWA iphone or ipad app - other than being able to select and copy text.

  6. iOS 8 issues

    After upgrading to iOS 8, composing an email has lots of problems. After about a paragraph or so of text, the formatting gets screwed up and starts to disappear.

  10. Enable Quick-Step functionality for moving items to folders

    Outlook client has quick step functionality which is useful for simple "move read item to Folder" type of actions to help keep inbox clean.

    Gmail mobile app has similar functionality with the "Archive" button.

    A similar quick step for OWA app would be very useful.

  12. Swipe options

    Suddenly I can no longer swipe left and select multiple emails and then choose to move, delete, etc. Swiping left just immediately deletes the email.

    I found "quick actions" in settings, but there is no option to go back to how it was.

    Being able to select multiple emails and then choose an action for all should be brought back. Now to move multiple emails, we'll have to go into each one and move them individually.

    Please add "classic swipe options" to the quick actions settings.

  15. Honor conditional formatting from Outlook

    I color code my inbox using rules defined in outlook's view settings. It would be great if this owa app honored those settings and color coded messages accordingly. Thanks

  17. Consumption of traffic over Mobile networks
