    @Outlook like many people I've been logged out in my phone and can't log back in despite using the correct password. This problem has been an issue for a month now, what are you actually doing to fix it?

    @Microsoft @Windows @Outlook Why does Outlook's auto-fill username feature fail every time after a Windows update? It auto-populates the username, I enter the pswd, & then get an error because the username apparently isn't recognized. Happens after every restart. Frustrating.

    Has anyone else downgraded from the new @Outlook to the old one? The new Outlook keeps asking me to sign in for every mailbox.

    We’re in 2026 and @Outlook still can’t fix notifications and badges on iOS. It’s NEVER RIGHT. Always get these mystery notifications. Telling me 2 new emails and there’s only 1. Most frustrating thing. #outlooksucks

    @Outlook How is your app so terrible and preventing junk/phishing emails going into peoples main inbox? Useless and the worst at it. You must be making something from it.

  • waded
    Wade Dorrell (@waded) reported

    @Outlook please fix Android app notification actions. I hit DELETE on the notification, I want the notification to dismiss in 500ms or less, and I expect that the next time I check inbox, what I said I wanted deleted is deleted. Network delay, already-deleted-elsewhere, not even visible in inbox yet, yeah I know these things happen, but they can't be allowed to let the notification go unresponsive to actions taken.

    @MSFT365Status it’s affecting regular Outlook accounts that are not business but are personal paid. my @outlook is down it’s very severe every account I have relies on two factor authentication through your email which means I’m fu..ed Thanks to this.

    @Outlook this update that sends everything to my Draft folders automatically is complete BS Please change this! It doesn’t save any time and causes way too many problems. The majority of people using outlook for work Multi task and end up having all these emails disappear. When it’s out of site it’s out of mind. That’s not a good thing.

    Trying to think of a way @Outlook or @MicrosoftHelps could be EVEN MORE retarded but I can't think of a way. You and your DEI hires just add spam calendar invites without even asking me... Then I can't use the app bc you want me to login with Outlook which is RETARDED because...

    @Outlook It’s been days of failed recovery attempts, unanswered requests, and no real support. I completed the forms, followed every step, and still have no access to my recovery emails. At this point it feels like customers are being ignored instead of helped. Please escalate this issue.

    @eternalsparrow1 @USCPSC They are still selling fraudulent capacity 18650 batteries but CPSC is not taking them down on that. Also the remedy involves contacting an @outlook.com email so CPSC is posing a potential cybersecurity risk.

    @Outlook are you aware of any glitches with shared calendars? I’ve lost 2 of my family calendars overnight and they can’t see mine anymore either. Have deleted them and readded. Still not working.

    @Office @Outlook Worlds largest Email client and cannot fix POP IMAP which even Ai cannot fix. If anyone believes Ai is next frontier for Microsoft, No its fixing basic email configuration and servers. Failed at everything and Pain customers can't get out of..Shame

    @Outlook Why remove Send Availability from the mobile app? It was one of the most useful features for scheduling on the go. Now the calendar button only creates events, and checking free times requires minimizing the draft or saving it just to switch tabs. Proposing 3–5 options has become a slow back-and-forth process.

    @Microsoft @Office @Outlook guys, I don’t know what the problem is but you need to red team your outlook search. It is such a train wreck you are for sure leaving billions of dollars of global economic development on the table from this one single thing
