How can we improve OWA for iPhone/iPad?

← OWA for Devices Suggestion Box

Play a sound when a new message arrives in my inbox

When new emails arrive in my inbox, I want my device to play a sound so I know this has happened.

    Our agent is out of the office most of the time and finds the sound essential to stop and check emails. Without sound and without notifications, he would just have to be checking his emails all the time. I switched everyone in the office to Apple Mail. We discarded the potentially useful idea of shared mailboxes as well since it is not supported without OWA.

    I am the only one using some if these features for testing purposes and to see how long Microsoft takes to upgrade its client. So far, I have been disappointed.

    PROBLEM SOLVED!!!! Get a different app as this one is likely to be discontinued since the engineers can't put a sound into it. You know if they were smart they would offer a $.99 upgrade to one with a sound... I would have bought it. Guess intelligence and common sense really don't go hand in hand. Enjoy OWA i'm out!

    I'm seriously at a loss understanding why the most basic feature every email app gives and likely the most wanted is not yet implemented.

    Please add a sound with incoming emails. Amazing application but it would be so much better if I was aware when I received a email. Please please update this app with a sound application added to it

    Yes it drives me bananas when I have three emails but no sound alert the other email app that I don't know how to sync with my owa account has sound it would be awesome to have an alert when you get email!! Thanks for the consideration!

    I need a mail sound alert. This has become a problem to the extent that I now forward office 365 mail to the inbuilt mail app on the iPhone so that I get an alert. Please add an audible alert to OWA for iPhone ASAP. Thank you.

    This should be a feature. Most users of this app are already using mail and other options that necessitate, if not require notifications. Thanks.

    Use iOS Notification center, so we can get banners and sounds and lock screen functionality with QWA

    This is such a basic feature! I'm shocked that it isn't available. Please update this as soon as possible.
