Office 365 Groups and Outlook mobile apps come together...
Feel free to disagree!
I don't like the way that so many apps have evolved around Office 365. I think that combining some is inevitable and this is the start of the trend. I imagine that Microsoft will transfer over functionality from the Outlook Groups app to Outlook quite quickly so that Outlook is as feature-rich in terms of groups as Outlook Groups is now. It's true that Groups are less prominant inside Outlook than in its own app, but surely that's a matter of training?
As to forcing people to use Outlook rather than the native email app, that's all part of the cunning plan... ;-)

And here I am eyeing my Windows Phone and wondering what you guys are all raving about...
I'm also not a fan of the "separate app for everything" approach. But I liked the Groups app, havent been able to test the Outlook one (WP).
As I said before this wonderful implementation of a technical community crapped out on me, the Windows 10 Mobile Outlook client is based on EAS and a lot of work is needed to integrate Groups. This is why I think Microsoft is keeping the Groups app for Windows 10.
Vasil, it's time to move...
Time to move to iOS. It seems to me that iOS is the most complete and best developed/stable iteration of Outlook, including Groups.
The Windows 10 Mobile version of Outlook is stuck in the EAS ecosystem. It needs a lot of upgrade to deal with Groups. Who knows will that ever happen...
