Mobile app Sub folder notifications
Im having exactly the same problem. I can't believe that it hasn't been fixed yet. There are a few suggested work arounds. Which one is the most successful? forbes13
Hi RickyR1969
I posted a workaround to this in 2020, cant believe that this is still a problem and that it wasnt yet implemented natively by microsoft.
well, I’ll just paste below what I posted in page1:
Hint for people that have the same issue and those who might end-up here:
The best solution I found currently is to use MS-flow app, I succeeded to have notifications with a little delay for outlook account.
Install ms-flow app from the store then follow these steps:
- Create a new flow
- from the triggers list, pick when a new email comes v2 (there is a trigger for outlook and one for 365).
- hit login, it will ask you to login
- then add Notification from the action list
- you can choose what to show in the notification (I picked sender and body of email).
- Thank you. I will give that a try. Will there be any licensing issues using MSN Flow? Our company probably doesn't pay for that license.
- Im not 100% sure but I think its just a free service from microsoft, I have been using it with my old company and with my personal free outlook email with no problem.
Just a little rectification apparently the app has been renamed to Power Automate instead of microsoft flow- That App looks really full on and very complicated.
