Outlook App on phone not showing colors for categories
Can someone tell me if the Outlook phone app is capable of displaying the colors set up for categories in the calendar? We have numerous teams using resource calendars and color coding the appointmen...
I have 4.2113.1 on my Android Phone running Android Version 9 (Pie) and I see the color categories on my phone calendar, but I cannot set or change a color category.
One thing that is very annoying is that if I use the Samsung native calendar app, and make any changes to a calendar entry that has a color category, it will not sync the entry back to Office 365 and subsequently to other devices in my universe. This creates a real issue, because if I update the same entry on my Outlook for Windows Desktop App, it completely overwrites the calendar entry that I previously updated using the Samsung Native App.
There are times when I need to use the Samsung native calendar app, and this lack of sync has messed me up several times.
