(Updated) Clearer RSVP selection in Outlook Mobile

Updated August 4, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience.

Introduction

We’re improving the RSVP experience in Outlook Mobile by visually highlighting the response a user has selected (Yes, Maybe, or No). This makes it easier for users to quickly see how they’ve responded to a meeting invitation.

When this will happen

General Availability (Worldwide, GCC, GCC High): Rollout begins mid-September 2026 (previously August) and is expected to complete by mid-October 2026 (previously end of August).
