Mobile app Sub folder notifications
The sub folders (or favourite mailboxes in Apple terminology) did give out notifications for new mails on iOS 12 and iOS 13 native mail app.
- NicolasREMYSep 09, 2021Copper ContributorHi everyone,
I don't know if Microsoft watches these forums, and the original post was only liked 10 times (i've added my "like" -> now 11).
Also, I have just sent a message to Microsoft support, asking them to look into it, hopefully this triggers some attention and a resolution.- NicolasREMYSep 09, 2021Copper Contributor
me again, I quickly got a response from the support, and they suggested to raise a feedback/request. This gets done directly within the Outlook mobile app, I suggest that anyone seeing this thread should raise such a feedback:
Currently, the app gives notification only for emails that lands on the Inbox.
Help us improve the app by submitting your feedback. Just go to the App's Settings → Help & Feedback → Send Feedback. Select "I Have a Suggestion" to request for that particular feature you like. Developments are made based on the statistics generated by the users in this area, so don't forget to voice your wishes there.and this is what I raised, feel free to copy paste when sending you own feedback:
Please enhance the iOS/Android Outlook apps, so that notifications get produced, even for emails that land in folders/sub-folders (as per Rules setup in the desktop Outlook client). A lot of users have requested this feature for years, so this forum thread for example: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/outlook/mobile-app-sub-folder-notifications/m-p/299018
