Mail & Calendar Apps Will Be Replaced with New Outlook for Windows December 2024
I've checked out the new Outlook. I'm not liking the calendar changes at all. I work in an office where I have multiple staff calendars open. They no longer auto adjust to view all on one screen and no overlay feature (which I didn't like anyway). I see you can scroll back and forth, but that is more bothersome in a busy office. I also see the Card option for viewing contacts is no longer in the program. I know there's still over a year before it comes out so hopefully they'll put these features back in.
Thank you.
Thank you for sharing your experience. I will add these features to my watch list.
I encourage you to give MS feedback.
Stay connected.

- What about tasks? that's literally the whole best thing about Outlook and we're scrapping it? I really wouldn't know what to do with that feature.
Eve_Simple - As to Tasks, aren't all Tasks in the old business Outlook being migrated to ToDo? I'm running the latest version of "Old" Business Outlook, and it in Outlook OPTIONS under TASKS it has a check box that says, "Open tasks in the To Do App." I think that should help with the transition.
As a long time user of Tasks, I have to say that I love ToDo. Much more useful, runs on ipads, cell phones and desktops. Allows me to assign tasks to other team members or get them assigned to me. It's actually a great app! But I agree with one thing, I am not recommending my clients to migrate to new Outlook at this point, and will not until it has more fully baked feature sets.
