When hovering over an appointment in my Outlook calendar, I would love to see the pop up include the invited attendees. Currently the user has to click open the event to see who is invited. As a quick glance improvement, having the invited attendees included in the popup overview would be extremely useful.

Is there a setting that can be applied to show this informoation, and if not, are there plans to include this feature in improvements to Outlook.

    Dear @CS-6543

    At present, Outlook does not provide a setting to customize the hover preview or add attendee information to the pop-up card. The tooltip is limited to basic meeting details, and attendee lists can only be viewed by opening the meeting item (or using features such as the Scheduling Assistant or Tracking page).

    Regarding future plans, according to my research, Microsoft has not published any roadmap item or announced plans to add attendee information to the calendar hover preview.

    I also agree that being able to see the invited attendees directly from the calendar hover pop-up would be a useful enhancement and would make it much easier to quickly review meeting details without opening the appointment. To ensure your feedback reaches the right teams, you can submit your feedback directly to Microsoft Ideas · Community, where the product development team can know your requirements and ideas for product improvements. If enough users raise ticket for the same idea, Microsoft may consider adding this feature in the future. 

    Please note that, the community members and the Microsoft product development team are separate. Therefore, for features suggestions or design queries, users need to submit feedback to the Microsoft product design team from their side. Once a user sends feedback through the above means, it will be sent directly to Microsoft and routed to the relevant product team so that can review it to do specific development in product services.

    For more details on how to submit feedback and understand how your input contributes to product design changes, refer to this article: Learn how to provide feedback to Microsoft

    I hope this information is helpful. If you have any other questions please feel free to reach out. Thank you for your patience and understanding.
