Sending an important email on Outlook mobile for iOS.

Question

Hello,

I've been looking through the Outlook mobile application and the community forum. It doesn't look like it is possible to send an email as important or high priority unless it is through Desktop Outlook application or OWA. Was wondering if someone knew a way or if it is just not possible at all?

Answer 1

Hi Alvin2818,

Thank you for posting. It's not feasible to send message mark as a high importance using Outlook for iOS.

If you have any further query you may please use built-in app support to contact our dedicated Outlook app for iOS team for further assistance.

In the Outlook app, Tap your profile photo and then the ? > Contact Support. For your reference: Get in-app help for Outlook for iOS and Android

NOTE: When you contact our support team, you won't receive an email or get a call back. But you'll receive a notification when the support team sends you a reply and can easily communicate with them in the app. Look for the notification on the Settings and Contact Support icons.

Your understanding is highly appreciated.

Best regards,

Shyamal

Well, you would think this issue would be corrected by Microsoft. They want everything to be available everywhere but refuse to give the functionality to make that a reality. I can operate my home security, turn equipment at work on and off and have a conversation at the same time on my phone but I can’t mark an email as “high priority” from my phone? Really?

That’s unbelievably stupid.

I'm an Android user but have same complaint! Come on, MS, get this sorted!
