Disable automatic download in HTML e-mail messages in Outlook Andoid App and Outlook Web

Question

Please tell me how to disable automatic download in HTML e-mail messages in Outlook Andoid App and Outlook Web.

You have multiple threads explaining how it is done in the Outlook Windows Program, eg.

• https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/1481879/how-to-allow-emails-to-automatically-download-imag
• https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/block-or-unblock-automatic-picture-downloads-in-email-messages-15e08854-6808-49b1-9a0a-50b81f2d617a

but none explaining how it is done in Outlook Andoird App as well as Outlook Web.

I am looking forward to your reply. If the option does not exist in both cases, please implement it as all competitors offer it as well.

Hi @Thomas ,

Welcome to our forum!

Based on my research, i didn't find related settings as you mentioned in Outlook for web. I'm afraid that it is not available in Outlook for web.

Please kindly understand that the Outlook tag here we mainly focus on general issues about Outlook desktop client. At present, what I can do for you is to submit feedback for your request and I have post here, and you could vote for it. If you have any suggestions or ideas, it's suggested that you could post here. Hope Microsoft will notice this in the future.

In addition, if you need help of Outlook Android App, it's suggested to post your issue on this dedicated forum for Outlook for Android for more professional help.

Thanks for your understanding and support!
