Microsoft Outlook for Android and iOS gets redesigned conversations and navigation

-


Microsoft is announcing a new update for its Outlook app for Android and iOS today. Once you grab the new version, Outlook will have redesigned conversations and better navigation. Furthermore, a new, intelligent search function is coming soon. This will help you find things easier and quicker.



Conversation view now shows you more text from each email at a glance, and it also has clearer separation between individual messages. Then when you tap on a conversation you'll be taken to the first unread message, so you can pick up exactly where you left off.

The quick reply box lets you easily write up a reaction to an email, and it allows you to see the rest of the conversation while you reply. If you tap the recipients list you can edit them, and if you want more options you can use the menu hidden behind the ellipsis.


The account and folder list has been revamped in order to provide much faster switching between your different accounts as well as the most important folders. The new sidebar now houses big icons for each account, and towards the bottom you can find the the Help and Settings buttons.



The new search experience that's on the way will be just one tap away no matter where you are in the app, because a search box will be put front and center in the simplified tab bar. From one spot you'll be able to search for message contents, people, as well as files. When typing a name you'll get instant suggestions from your most frequent contacts.

The redesigned navigation and conversations are available now in Outlook for iOS with Outlook.com and Gmail accounts, while support for Office 365 is coming within the next few days. All of these features, along with the new search, should make their way to Outlook for Android "over the next couple of months".

Google is pushing out an updated version of its contacts management app, bringing some of the features available in the web version to the Android app. The v 1.5 update reorganizes the user interface of Google Contacts. Instead of the two tabs – all and favorites – the app now just displays your entire contact list, with a sidebar menu available via the hamburger button on the left. Opening that up reveals a new section for managing duplicate contacts. That’s a feature that was present on the web app of Contacts , but the process was more convoluted on the Android app. You can now also add labels to your contacts, making it easy to organize large contact lists based on groups, for things like family, work, or school.

The other is an 88” 8K OLED panel that we told you about last week. The flexibility of the 65” OLED display makes it easier to transport or store in the corner. Its small size allows for better space utilization, meaning you can take the TV anytime, anywhere and “enjoy bright, high-resolution content”.
