Microsoft has added a nifty feature to its Outlook app with the latest Play Store update. Outlook for Android will now allow users to sync their calendars with other calendar apps like Google Calendar and Samsung Calendar. Users can update their Outlook app to the latest version from the Play Store to start syncing their calendar apps.
This is very beneficial for those who use multiple calendar apps. Notably, syncing calendars works both ways. When compatible calendar apps are linked, the Outlook calendar events will also show up in those apps. Similarly, events from other calendar apps will appear in the Outlook calendar.
Users can also make edits to the events in any of the synced apps. Apart from first-party apps like Google Calendar and Samsung Calendar, this should also work with any calendar app available on the Play Store. Moreover, this new feature is not just limited to Microsoft 365 (previously known as Office 365) subscribers.
It will be available to everyone with an Outlook email account. Outlook is already one of the best email clients available in the Play Store. With this new feature, more users could switch to Outlook from other apps. Over the last few months, Microsoft has added several new features to improve productivity.
Just last month, the company announced that it would soon integrate voice assistant into the Outlook app. The app will support scheduling a meeting or sending a short email using the voice assistant. There are also a few new shortcuts for suggested replies.
