Outlook app

[Ahorsecalledseptember]

I have a lot of junk emails. I generally just delete them. But outlook have recently decided every bit of nonsense I get from selfridges, the works, Debenhams, new look, John Lewis, white stuff, are all ‘essential.’ My phone is buzzing constantly!

Is there any way at all to stop this? Do I just need to delete the app, as it’s driving me mad!

Unsubscribe from the emails?

There are a lot. It takes seconds to delete them, but it’s just mildly irritating that they are flagged as important.

You can mute notifications from the app in the settings menu. I only use Outlook for work so I want to choose when I interact with it so I've got all notifications muted.

Thinking back, it used to have a focussed inbox which has now disappeared, that's what must have changed. I have to say I found that feature really irritating and was always trying to switch it off. I agree with muting alerts, I only have the badge icon switched on.
