Outlook for iOS end of support for iOS9
With the release of iOS11, we want to remind you that Outlook for iOS is supported only in the last two releases of iOS. This means new app updates to Outlook will now only be supported on devices with iOS10 or iOS11. Devices with iOS9 are no longer supported. While older versions of Outlook will still work on devices running iOS9, these devices will not get new app updates after build 2.48. Users can expect a degraded experience of the Outlook for iOS app over time if they do not stay up to date.
