@AntesdelAtardcr @Outlook Yes @Outlook are absolutely useless, I would use others. It’s nearly impossible to login sometimes even when you have the correct details. God knows what there developers do!

@Outlook Your most recent iOS update has fully broken the app - no longer opens, even if deleted and re-downloaded. Congrats to all developers involved in being totally unable to test before release, fire them.

Guys I figured out a temporary fix for the @outlook insta crash bug. Long hold the app, select calendar and then navigate to email.

@luisbull82 @Outlook They are using an AI algorithm for security. The problem is what they have fed into it. It's irritating, not being able to check your mails if you want to. They have become even better than Gmail at data mining, but at least Gmail is accessible, unlike this nonsense.

@Outlook have an Outlook login issue. The authentication process timed out with the error: 'Authenticator registration has timed out. Please choose “Next” to try again.' I've tried scanning the QR code and manually signing in, but nothing has worked. I've sent you a PM. Thank you

@Outlook You guys have learned nothing. Update the new desktop program for outlook. It is the web version of outlook and just as terrible as the web version of outlook. Cannot even do basic functions of the old outlook desktop program.

@Outlook What the hell is wrong with your services? When I try to log in, its "Too many requests' that too when I am trying to log in after some 4-5 days, each time? Anyone else facing this issue? Not a technical glitch. Some AI filter at work. Time to change mail providers.

@Outlook It takes a lot to get me mad. But @Microsoft has again managed it. Someone tries to hack my account, so they block it. I don't know my password and my verification email was blocked a year ago and the phone number is obsolete. To change a PW I've gone through 100s of hoops and full circle again and again. It's been 4 hours. To contact them...yes you need to sign in! I've filled the verification form in twice and been denied twice. I'm supposed to know what postcode I used for a email address over 20+ years and a Skype username I used once. In fact Skype isn't even a thing. Call a real person.....in your dreams.

Calendar sync between Apple Calendar and Outlook is a nightmare. Never works as expected — and keeps dumping random meetings into my schedule. How is this still a thing in 2025?! Am I the only one? Please @Apple @Outlook, work together and fix this 🙏

@Outlook @Microsoft I believe my account has been hacked. Have been trying to contact you guys for a week but am hopelessly beaten by an endless cycle of bots telling me to sign in. Unfortunately I cannot do this as my password has been changed. Please Help or answer my DMs.
