Tap for Word and Outlook - where is it?
The only one point - not for all, see support.office.com/en-gb/article/Find-and-use-the-content-you-need-when-you-need-without-leaving-Word-860118fc-1f61-41f6-922f-40084a284658?ui=en-US&rs=en-GB&ad=GB
Also note that the Tap feature is not yet available for Office 365 subscriptions generated in Australia, Brazil, Canada, China, Germany, Great Britain, India, and Japan; regardless of the country you’re working in. We are working on expanding Tap’s availability to these locations in the near term.
'Tap' was introduced on Current channel at the beginning of December https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/office/mt465751.aspx?f=255&MSPPError=-2147217396
I believe it shall be in current 1612 builds.

- Steven Collier - I have sought therapy for my obsession, but with no luck! Thank you very much for this, it now sort of makes sense as to why they may have shelved it for a while. I can now let my colleagues know maybe it is on its way..... feet up and gin in hand :-)
Maybe, just maybe, it's coming again. At Ignite they demoed that the new universal Microsoft Search would find documents from within Word, PowerPoint etc then let you insert document parts. Try watching the demo at https://youtu.be/w7eTbdT0hag?t=1087
Then finally Tanya Denton can relax :)
Agreed - please could we have confirmation it is coming to the UK, and also to PowerPoint?
It would be a massive help for our team retrieving standard slides/answers in documents - I'd just like to know if it is going to be available or not.
thanks
- Nearly 2 years later, still not in the UK. Why is it taking so long to release to the UK (and other countries)?
One year + later and still not in Canada. Is there any update on the feature availability?
One of the reasons why i always prefer to install packages with USA SKU, after that add languages/regional settings i need, and usually uninstall/disable USA ones.
I've had the same experience with de-de locale on current channel. Supposedly released features from CC are just not there, or sometimes even disappear even though they were there before.
My assumption some months ago was also the language, though I wasn't able to get a confirmation, O365 Support from Microsoft didn't have a clue either.
Since then I haven't had the time to further investigate.
