Why does no one talk about how laggy Outlook is on Android? I've tried it on both a 6T and a 3a and the animations so terrible. Everytime an email is opened the animations are so choppy. So many people use this for their email app and I just can't believe no one talks about it.

Probably because those in the know don't use Outlook but rather Aqua Mail or Nine ( for Exchange Activesync).

It is a horrible app!

I used the built-in Email Huawei and Samsung apps for my Outlook access, and on my iPhone I use the built-in Mail app as I don’t want to touch the Outlook app.

Even the GMail app is better for Outlook than the Outlook app itself.

Has always worked perfectly fine for me on several Android phones.

I've tried many other mail apps (incliding those mentioned above) but just prefer Outlook.

I’ve used it on various Android phones as well without issue. I find it slightly more polished on iOS but until Spark recently came to Android, Outlook was my preferred email client.

For the people saying they use it with no issue, you’re telling me when you are in the app and open an email you aren’t seeing that horrendous choppy animation of the email opening?

I use it on my Xs Max and Pixel 3 XL and have no issues
