Boards have disappeared for the latest version of Outlook Preview
I've been running the Outlook Preview for a while and loved the ability to create free-style 'Boards'. But when I updated yesterday, the board disappeared. Any idea why? I can't see the board I crea...
I noticed this yesterday and found that Boards are being retired/ https://m365admin.handsontek.net/outlook-calendar-board-view-retirement/ Boards will be retired from Online by June 26, 2023, guessing they pulled it out of new Outlook to avoid more iritation from users.
jbucarion Damm, its really bad decision. I was love using it!
I am still able to see board option in online version https://outlook.office.com/ but It got removed from app version.
devBarry For online version you can navigate to https://outlook.office.com/ -> Calender -> View
Here you can see your board.
shubhgupta - I also use mine daily to keep organized. It helps greatly with ADHD people. I access mine online. Fingers crossed they at least leave that option for those of us dependent on that tool. It would save time to not have to find another tool to do what it already is doing for us.
- I even went through the hassle of getting the web app version of Outlook to use as it still had the Board feature. So much jumping through hoops for nothing. 🙂
- I am guessing they removed from new Outlook as they are in preview and dont want feature confusion, but online will be gone by 6/26.
I liked the boards as I prefer my calendar to show the next 7 days, and new Outlook does not support that.- I did not see it in the new Outlook. Do I think it's gone, gone. You can still download the data from boards in the settings.
(online) settings > privacy and data > Board - The latest version actually does! Under "Day" view in the Calendar tab there's now a dropdown, of which you can pick the next 7 days 🙂
- D- That must have just been added recently. Yeah. I wish they would give us a list of features/changes when they release updates so we don't have to keep poking around to see what changed.
- Ah yes.. the classic give a really good feature, then take it away as people find your program to actually be usable. Big brain thinkers over here at Microsoft, I'm telling you.
