Month-View Side Panel

Question

Please restore the month-view side panel. I used this constantly. It's so helpful and one of my favorite features. It's irritating that it has been removed without an option to add it back.

Answer 1

Hi @Scott Ulves 

Welcome to Microsoft Q&A forum.   

It appears you’re missing the month-view side panel in Outlook Calendar, and I completely understand how helpful that feature was for quick navigation and planning. 

Microsoft recently updated the Outlook experience to simplify the interface, and as part of this redesign, the persistent month-view sidebar was removed. At this time, there isn’t an option to restore it in the new Outlook or Outlook on the web. 

As community moderators, we unfortunately do not have the ability to directly modify or disable features within Outlook. 

However, we strongly encourage you to submit your feedback directly through Microsoft Feedback Portal. This ensures that your concerns are seen by the engineering team, who can evaluate and improve the process to avoid causing further inconvenience to users.      

How to submit your suggestion to Microsoft:       

1. Visit the Microsoft Feedback Portal:        

• Go to: Microsoft 365 Feedback Hub > Send Feedback > Describe your proposal in detail   

2. Upvote & collaborate:        

Check existing suggestions and upvote similar ones. The more votes an idea gets, the higher its priority.    

Why Your Voice Matters:        

• The product team reviews all feedback submitted here directly.        
• Popular ideas appear on the Microsoft 365 Roadmap if approved.        
• Your suggestion could help millions of users in the future!        

We truly appreciate your feature suggestion for better experience. We’ll continue to monitor feedback and share updates as they become available.     

We sincerely apologize once again for the inconvenience you’ve experienced, and we truly appreciate your continued support and engagement with Microsoft.      

Wishing you a great day ahead.
