Removing outlook anywhere notification from Outlook

Question

We are using Outlook for Office 365 version 16.0.13801 64 bit on Windows 10 version 21H1 and seeing this notification for downloading outlook anywhere.

I would like to suppress this message. I have followed the steps in https://learn.microsoft.com/en-US/outlook/troubleshoot/installation/how-to-remove-get-and-set-up-outlook-mobile-app-on-my-phone-option but it still appears. I found a different solution to submit a form but others have said that no longer works. Please let me know if you have any suggestions.

Answer 1

Hi @WD ,

Welcome to our forum!

According to your description, I have done research on the outlook anywhere notification "TAKE YOUR OUTLOOK ANYWHERE". It's suggested that you could try JadeLiang-MSFT's reply in this thread to turn off the option "Turn on optional connected experiences"(File>Options>Trust center>Trust center settings>Privacy option>Privacy settings>uncheck Turn on optional connected experiences) and check if there're any differences.

Hope the above help!

It disables a ton of features. MS is incompetent.
