Awful app. Instead of fixing the issues with performance or user interface, they've just bloated it by bolting on copilot features that nobody asked for or will use.
★★★★ саид 5/8/2026 v5.2616.0

★★★★ Carl Ciprian 5/8/2026 v5.2617.1
I've always had problems with this app. At the point of writing this I can't even compose emails anymore. Straight garbage. It's not like this review even matters, they won't fix anything anyways.
★★★★ John Schein 5/8/2026 v5.2616.0
Passwords aren't safe. Tons of phishing in focused inbox. Cant block senders. No customer service.
★★★★ Mary Wells 5/7/2026 v5.2616.0
could not send emails, look up contacts, just keeps spinning. tried closing and opening, restart, uninstall but now will not let me install. So frustrated. I need assistance and no place to call and cannot email because won't install. this is ridiculous. Outlook please do better and send me assistance to fix this issue.

★★★★ Chris sweeten 5/7/2026 v5.2616.0
keeps deleting emails I need. cant seem to easily navigate to a setting that stops it from deleting after so many emails pile up in in box. not to mention folders I've created and moved emails into also just end up deleted. very annoying. not user friendly. especially for a work email. if was my company id delet the app and never look back!! COME ON MICROSOFT!!! I HATE YOUR APP
★★★★ Darren Ross 5/7/2026 v5.2617.0
Malicious ads in my inbox. I opened my email to see, right at the top, an ad from McAfee saying that my payment was due. It looked just like an email except for a tiny little ad symbol in the corner. This is completely unacceptable and preys on people that don't know better. Do better Microsoft.
★★★★ Tyler Collins 5/7/2026 v5.2617.1
Cant find the same email on my phone that I can find on my laptop through the outlook website.
★★★★ Bronwyn Higgins 5/7/2026 v5.2616.0

★★★★ sol sebeka 5/7/2026 v5.2616.0
absolutely awful. keeps denying me access to my emails by allocating me a cellphone number I don't know the when I type in my correct phone number, respond by saying incorrect number. I failed to do my job as a result
★★★★ Berenice Pellicano 5/7/2026 v5.2616.0
recently started using this for all my email accounts... switched phones and suddenly getting lots of adds. deleted the app
★★★★ Chris Frawley 5/7/2026 v5.2616.0
Awful app, doesn't work, Microsoft is the worst.
★★★★ Travis McBride 5/7/2026 v5.2616.0
Terrible Update. Emails don't send, folders don't update, deleted messages keep coming back. App is basically unusable like this.
★★★★ Lee Jones 5/7/2026 v5.2617.0
Can no longer take photos and attach directly from Outlook
★★★★★ Dave Jacobs 5/8/2026
Outlook for Android has really fallen off a cliff. E.g. a major usability flaw: replies always start at the bottom of the thread, and there's no option to change it. To see the message I'm responding to, I have to manually expand the thread every single time. Why so many extra steps?? It slows everything down and makes long conversations painful. This "feature" is a bug.
★★★★★ James Townend 5/7/2026 v5.2616.0
App is now useless since the last update with Copilot enabled, can't pull down to fetch new emails, spinning circle multiple times, sent items not syncing. As soon as Copilot is disabled, everything works fine again. Shame to have to disable a super useful functionality just to get the app to do the basics
★★★★★ Ruby Thorn 5/7/2026 v5.2616.0
This app has been broken on both phone and tablet for well over a week now! It thinks my last email on my school account was received on April 22. Well, I know THAT'S bs. And that's the best case scenario. Other times, it shows a blank white screen. If I try to get it to show the new emails, it loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...and loads...
