Whether you\u2019re planning your next dinner date or an upcoming meeting with teammates, the Outlook app is there to help you manage and make the most of your day. Today, we are adding several of your most highly requested calendaring features, including the ability to sync your shared calendars to your phone and manage and RSVP to recurring events.<\/p>\n
Here\u2019s a look at what\u2019s new:<\/p>\n
You will now be able to view and edit shared Office 365 or Outlook.com calendars, just like you can with your own calendars. Better yet, you can also share your own calendars with others and accept sharing invitations easily right from the app.<\/p>\n
If you don\u2019t see your shared calendars<\/a> right now, don\u2019t worry. We are in the process of upgrading existing shared calendars so that they start syncing to Outlook. However, if you just can\u2019t wait and want the new experience immediately, simply re-accept the sharing invitation from Outlook on iOS or Android. Once you do this, your shared calendar will appear. If you cannot find the original calendar sharing invitation, ask the calendar owner to re-share and accept the new invite from Outlook. And voila!<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n For those of you who manage someone else\u2019s calendar at work, you\u2019ll now be able to do this from the palm of your hand. Manage your delegates, accept a delegation request, and fully view and edit the delegated calendar all from Outlook on iOS or Android. And when you receive meeting invitations and responses, we will more clearly indicate if they are for your or your manager\u2019s calendar, so you don\u2019t get them confused.<\/p>\n <\/a><\/p>\n Following up on our launch of Facebook and Evernote\u00a0in Outlook on iOS and Android\u00a0this year, we are releasing support for Meetup\u2014a new Calendar app in Outlook. Meetup brings people together in thousands of cities to do more of what they want to do in life. Now, when you connect your Meetup account to Outlook, you can see your upcoming Meetups directly on your calendar.<\/p>\nManage delegate calendars on the go<\/h3>\n
