Microsoft has decided to switch off its Outlook Web Apps (OWA) for iPhone, iPad and Android, instead pushing users to download and install the standalone Outlook app, which it said it has turned into an "award-winning app".
The company's OWAs effectively functioned as a halfway-house between the browser-based Outlook experience and the fully fledged Outlook app, offering functions that can only be provided by a native app such as contact syncing and push notifications.
Microsoft explained it's decided to discontinue the apps as of April, removing them from the App Store and Google Play. It will notify existing users of the expiry via in-app messages, advising them to instead install the standalone Outlook app for their platform.
