Microsoft Outlook for Android Brings 2-Way Sync With Google Calendar, Others

Microsoft Outlook for Android is rolling out a new feature that will enable users to sync data between Outlook Calendar and Google Calendar, as well as other third-party calendars. Hence, events created in other calendar apps including Samsung Calendar can now be viewed or edited from Outlook’s mobile apps. The feature comes with Outlook for Android version 4.2039.0 that is currently available in select markets. It is unclear when the new update will reach Indian users.

Users who want the update right now can get the latest version for Android, via APK Mirror. It is unclear whether the feature needs to be manually enabled or is set as default following the update, but accessing settings to toggle the calendar settings should now give comprehensive control over scheduling work days. Apart from the two-way syncing between calendars, the latest update does not bring any other features, such as the anticipated voice commands that Microsoft announced last month.
