Outlook is built for Mac
With Outlook, you'll get a modern and beautiful user interface that has been designed and optimized for macOS. And these enhancements go far beyond surface level. The new Outlook is optimized for Apple Silicon, with snappy performance and faster sync speeds than previous versions.

Outlook for Mac does more to integrate into the Apple platform so that you get the most from your macOS device. To help you stay on top of your email and calendar while using other apps, you can view your agenda using a widget and see reminders in the Notification Center. We are also creating a peek of upcoming calendar events in the Menu Bar (coming soon).



We know life is multifaceted and Outlook is leveraging the Apple platform to support you by making it easier to switch contexts. With our new Handoff feature, you can pick up tasks where you left off between iOS and Mac devices, so you can get up and go without missing a beat.



We understand it's more important than ever to protect your time. The new Outlook Profiles (coming soon) allow you to connect your email accounts to Apple's Focus experience. With Outlook Profiles, you won't get unwanted notifications at the wrong time so you can stay focused on that important work email, with no distractions from your personal email.
