Cortana makes a return in Outlook for iOS. It’s coming to Android soon, too.
As part of Microsoft’s push to make its software compatible with hybrid work, the company has released new Cortana-powered voice features for Outlook that make the app easier to use from a smartphone. Cortana isn’t a star feature on Windows 10 but it’s still in the background, powering Microsoft 365 services on apps across platforms such as iOS and Android. Now Outlook users with an iPhone or iPad can rely on Cortana’s voice capabilities to schedule meetings, search for emails, and read out a reply to an email.
