Outlook Notes and mobile devices

Is it possible to view Notes from the Outlook client in a mobile device?

Outlook Mobile for iOS\Android does not support note syncing from Outlook Desktop\OWA.

    Exchange Notes should be accessible on Outlook mobile apps.

    It is a feature that is available on native iOS mail client but not on Outlook app which hard to believe.

    Users of Outlook mobile apps, especially from Organizations with Intune MDM implemented will benefit.

      Shong5 I concur. This functionality was on BlackBerry devices ages ago. Why it is on iOS and not on Android is beyond reason. We need integrated tasks and notes in the Outlook client.

        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.
