Hi Brett,

 

I can do all of that with the native Mail app. You can add an “Unread” mailbox 
to your list of mailboxes by double tapping on the Edit button when you are in 
the main screen of the mail app.

 

If I am in my Inbox I can double tap on Edit at the top right and then double 
tap on as many messages as I want to select them. Voiceover correctly speaks 
whether they are selected or not. I then have 3 options across the bottom of 
the screen, “Mark”, “Move” or “trash”.

 

I am an Outlook user on the computer, but I haven’t tried Outlook on the iPhone 
and this is one case where I don’t see much of a reason why I would want to 
since I think the implementation of the Mail app is very good and it fully 
supports both Exchange accounts and Exchange Active Sync accounts.

 

I also think some of the new features in the mail app since iOS 8 are quite 
nice like the ability to minimize a draft in order to look up information in a 
different email.

 

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hi, I rather like it. So far it seems faster than the default app to sort mail. 

 

I don't,  probably like many here, have time to read every message. With 
outlook, you can double tap and hold, then slide right to get in to multi 
selection mode. You can then scrol through your list of mail and double tap the 
ones you want to select. After this is done, you can batch move or delete them. 
In my opinion, this is a huge time saver. 

 

To only show unread messages, first tap the Filter button, then choose unread. 

 

Hope this helps. 

Brett.

I just took a look at it using my work iPhone since we use Exchange.

1. There is no indication of a message being read or unread, forwarded or 
replied to like there is in the native mail app.

2. The people list seems to only include recent contacts, so only those people 
whom you have exchanged Emails with recently, whatever they mean by recent.

Just based on those two things, I won't be using this app.

Hi all,

 

I‘m playing around with the new Outlook app for IOS.  Can anyone let me know if 
there is a way to import my contacts?  When I go into “People” I only get the 
very recent contacts.  Unless I am doing something wrong, I just hate having to 
write in all e-mail addresses.

Please help
