New Outlook app for Windows 11 now available for download

Reports of Microsoft's "One Outlook" have been circulating for over a year, and a recent leak confirms that we're closer than ever to the new email client. Today, Microsoft officially begins rolling out the new Outlook for Windows 11 and Windows 10.

The new client for Outlook, which is based on Outlook and is visually very similar to the current Outlook on the web experience, is now available to users who sign up for the Office Insider Program for Windows. Although it is the same as the website, it comes with embedded window controls.

With One Outlook, Microsoft hopes to combine applications such as Outlook and Outlook desktop into a single application that can run on all Windows machines. Additionally, Microsoft is planning to launch a web-based Outlook client for macOS, according to sources familiar with the development.

Microsoft officials said the new outlook aims to align Windows products and the Web code base to help users stay more productive. Unlike the existing UWP-based Windows Outlook app, this new email client offers all the features available on the website.

For example, you can access features like message reminders and a new calendar view that gives you access to email, calendar, and to-dos. Additionally, there is access to the Microsoft Loop component, which makes collaboration between Outlook and Teams even easier.

A unified Outlook experience for Windows certainly makes sense, especially since many advanced features are missing in the native UWP Outlook client. Many users dislike the integrated mail app because it has an outdated design, lacks features, or is slow to update.

For those who use Outlook on multiple platforms and prefer a performance-friendly email client, this new Outlook can make their lives easier.

Here is a list of new features available in Outlook:

• Quickly find and attach important files.
• Try smart assistance to stay on top of important information
• Reminder when you miss a message.
• You can use your inbox as a to-do list.
• To Do's My Day keeps you in the flow of your work.
• New calendar view that can be customized.

If you're interested, you can try out this feature by enabling the "Try the new Outlook" toggle located in the upper right corner of classic Outlook for Windows.
