Are you on Outlook 2016 16.0.7967.2xxx? I believe that's the required version, it's still not available to our tenant despite FR Current Channel and Modern Auth.

      The situation here:

      • Full tenant First Release
      • Focused Inbox in OWA enabled and working
      • Focused Inbox in Outlook for IOS enabled and working
      • Modern authentication in EXO enabled
      • Office 2016 C2R Version 1704 build 8067.2115

      Focused Inbox in Outlook desktop still doesn't work...

      Am I missing something?

        This morning, automagically, Focused Inbox turned on in Outlook desktop on my tenants!

        I guess there is nothing that can be done to accelerate the activation process.

        If you are compliant, the only thing to do is to wait that they flip the switch...
