@Microsoft @Outlook would you please move the email search bar down from the top and back to where it belongs directly above email please? Where it was in previous outlook versions? Who asked for this? The answer is no one. Insane.

@tastapod @Microsoft @Outlook Good to hear that! I’ve tried and tested many different calendar, mail, notes apps and there are really ones. But I find myself going back to Mac stock apps because of their incredible performance, easy of use and ... you never feel a sword might come down on you.

I swear the recent @Outlook android app updates keep freezing the app so no new inbox messages to show up. 😑 Then I uninstall to reinstall, the app tells me "an error occurred" when I attempt to add my account til it connects. Very tedious to go through. Do better, @Microsoft.

Fix the damn @Outlook app on Android, @Microsoft @MicrosoftHelps. Emails load stupidly slowly, incomplete, or sometimes not at all.

.@Outlook mail search is so terrible I have to open my work email in gmail 7 or 8 times a day to find emails from within the last month, then send them to myself to edit in outlook. Cool UX win!

Hi @BookTasters, Internet connection is back, but as it's raining it's very slow and fragmentary. If you can re-send the last DM as a regular tweet it may open for me before the week is over. @Microsoft @Outlook is hopeless in this weather.

This is all happening in the web version of Outlook, which is _better and more modern_ than the desktop version. I don't get why @Outlook has so many UX issues. There's a golden standard for email, which is @gmail. It isn't rocket science to figure out these basic workflows.

Recently I decided to go 'passwordless' for my @Outlook account, where instead of asking for a password, I get a pop up on my phone asking me to accept the login. The last few days I've been spammed with the login notification saying someone in the US is trying to login (1/9) 🧵
