Microsoft has unveiled the highly anticipated new Outlook for Windows. Packed with cutting-edge features, intelligent assisted capabilities, and a sleek modern design, this update is set to revolutionize your Outlook experience.
“The new Outlook for Windows brings the latest features, intelligent assisted capabilities, and a new modern and simplified design to your Outlook app. You can tailor it to your style and do more with the new Outlook for Windows,” the tech said in a blog post.
However, since this version is still in the preview stage, standard paid support options are currently unavailable for commercial and consumer users. But don’t worry, joining the preview is easy. Just switch the toggle on and be a part of the future of Outlook. Remember, you can always switch back to the classic version whenever you want.
For Windows users relying on Windows Mail and Calendar, migrating to the new Outlook is as simple as choosing the “Add account” option within the app. From Microsoft accounts for work or school to Outlook.com, Hotmail, or Gmail accounts, you can manage all your email and calendars in one convenient location.
Not sure where to start? Familiarize yourself with the ribbon, the powerful control center for managing your inbox and formatting emails. You can customize the ribbon to suit your preferences, making it a perfect fit for your workflow.
Navigation has never been easier with the new Outlook’s intuitive navigation bar. Quickly switch between apps like Calendar, Contacts, or any other frequently used application. And for those who love multitasking, the “My Day” feature allows you to access your calendar or tasks without leaving your inbox.
You can also say goodbye to endless searching for essential emails with the “Pin” function. By simply right-clicking on a message, you can pin it to the top of your inbox, ensuring swift access and saving precious time.
Need to manage important emails for a later time? The Snooze feature makes it possible to schedule the delivery of emails to your inbox, syncing them with your availability. Just right-click on a message, choose Snooze, and set the time you want it to reappear.
In a world where time zones often overlap, scheduling emails becomes crucial. The new Outlook enables you to choose precisely when to send an email, ensuring it reaches the recipient at an appropriate time. Say goodbye to midnight messages!
And let’s not forget about revamped categories. Now, category names and colors are visible directly on your messages. With a single click, you can access all messages assigned to a specific category. You can even add a category to your Favorites for quick and easy access.
