Outlook Notes and mobile devices
Is it possible to view Notes from the Outlook client in a mobile device?
Exactly! I kept the BlackBerry Hub app (for a whopping $1.46/mo CAD), but it has recently developed problems with the sync function, making the sync quite unreliable. So I thought I would just switch over to the Outlook app (which is OK - barely - for email and calendar), but then I need "ToDo" for Tasks, Simple Contacts Pro for Contacts (and their developer advises that I need Akruto or DAVx⁵ in order for them to sync properly!), and I'm still looking for something to use for "Notes" (since OneNote is about the most user-unfriendly program I've ever seen). VERY VERY disappointing.
Maybe I am a little bit late to the game, but there are still ways to access the notes via Android and even for Windos 10+.
Microsoft call Outlook Notes also “Notes” or “Sticky notes”.
On Android Microsoft developed a remarkable Launcher. Yes, it replaces the system launcher, but brings on the feed page a module for sticky notes – similar to the sticky notes app on Windows. It displays and saves the notes into the Microsoft- or 365-account.
2nd way is OneNote on mobile phones. There is a feed-view, where the sticky notes are displayed and also created (hides behind the 3 dot-menu on the bottom bar).
On Windows 10 and 11 you can take access via the app “Microsoft Sticky Notes” – it safes the notes as Outlook Notes into an Microsoft- or 365-account. How far this is similar on Exchange, you’ve to test.
The 2nd way on Windows is OneNote as Desktop-Variant. There the sticky notes / outlook notes can be found in the “feed” and also managed.
The alternate route to the sticky notes from your Outlook-Account is not satisfying, but gives an access…
