    Hi Norman, Group calendar is soon going to be on your mobile Outlook app, perhaps as soon as a couple of months! Please bear with us for a bit.

Norman Scally, StevenC365 - I'm sorry to hear that the feature is not working as expected for you guys, since this is working fine for me.

 

Can you both please create a help/support ticket from within your app? Please mention in your ticket that this is a "Group Events" issue and add that this should be looked at by "Ravin".

 

Thanks, we'll try and get this resolved quickly. 

 

Regards,

Ravin

StevenC365 - Thanks for raising your support ticket. I just had a look at it and I think I know what is wrong.

 

I wanted to clarify that on Outlook Mobile (iOS), we support showing a group's events ONLY from that group's details page or the card. Adding a group's calendar alongside all other calendars and shared calendar is NOT supported yet and is currently in our backlog. There is no specific ETA for this feature, but we're working on it. 

 

At the moment you can view a group's events on the group details page or the group card, as well as add group events on your personal calendar. If a Group does not have any calendar events, you would not see any events on the Card. 

 

Hope that clarifies.

    Hi Ravin Sachdeva could you explain more about what the 'group details page' and 'card' look like, a picture might help.

      Here's a best way to get to a Group Card:
      1. From your inbox - just tap on the Group Name in the recipient list of an email that contains a group.
      2. From your Groups list - open sidebar -> Tap on 'Groups' -> Tap on a group in the list -> tap on the top circle picture of group -> Group details page.
       
      here's how the events should look like. And tapping on "See All" should show you all the events for that group.

        Got it, I see.

         

        That's quite a complex route to find, I've used Outlook mobile for a couple of years and I certainly didn't think to press that circle at the top. I would expect that when I access a groups messages the calendar icon would take me to the groups calendar, maybe overlayed with mine.
