Microsoft to retire Outlook Lite for Android May 25, 2026
Technology
Heads up, Android users: Microsoft is retiring the Outlook Lite app on May 25, 2026.
After that, you'll need to use the regular Outlook Mobile app to access your email, calendar, and attachments, even if Outlook Lite still opens on your phone.
How to upgrade to Outlook mobile
You can upgrade straight from Outlook Lite using the "Upgrade" button or just grab Outlook Mobile from the Google Play store: your existing emails, calendar items, and attachments will sync automatically.
Microsoft promises your data stays safe during the switch.
No extra steps needed from IT administrators, but organizations should help folks move over for smooth sailing.
This change is part of Microsoft's plan to keep its mobile apps streamlined and better connected with Microsoft 365.
