Mobile devices options in outlook on the web

Set up email on your mobile device

Note: Do you have a mobile device that isn't in the list above? If so, see Set up Office apps and email on a mobile device. There, look for the "Have a different device?" section and then select the device that applies to you.

Use the Mobile devices page

The Mobile devices page lets you view all the devices that you're currently syncing with your mailbox. From the Mobile devices page in Outlook on the web, you can perform different actions to help you manage your devices.

Note: If the instructions don't match what you see, you might be using an older version of Outlook on the web. Try the Instructions for classic Outlook on the web.

To get to the Mobile devices page, select Settings Settings > View all Outlook settings > General > Mobile devices.
