New Groups Features Coming in the Outlook Mobile App; Outlook Groups App will be Retired
February 9, 2018 - We’re pleased to announce that we're focusing our efforts on expanding Groups functionality in the Outlook mobile app.
Because of this new focus, we've decided to retire the standalone Outlook Groups app later this year. You can keep using it until May 1, 2018, but you can already find and collaborate with all your groups inside the Outlook mobile app. See "use groups in the Outlook mobile app" to get started.
All of your existing group memberships and functionality will continue to work in Outlook on the web, Outlook 2016, Outlook 2016 for Mac, and any other Office application.
Groups is an important part of making teamwork effortless inside Outlook and Office. These changes are part of both our continued efforts to refine Microsoft 365 as the universal toolkit for teamwork and the investments we’re making in Microsoft Teams and Yammer.
