Bring Back Play My Emails Feature - Outlook
You’re not alone in missing the “Play My Emails” feature. It definitely made managing emails on-the-go much easier. While we wait for Microsoft to possibly bring it back, here are some alternatives you can use to get similar functionality:
Current Alternatives:
-
Microsoft To Do App: This app allows you to integrate your Outlook account and listen to your emails. It’s not the same as “Play My Emails,” but it’s something.
-
Outlook Mobile App: While it doesn’t have an audio feature, you can still use the mobile app to quickly check and prioritize your emails on the go.
Product Feedback:
To increase the chances of getting the “Play My Emails” feature back, make sure to submit your feedback to Microsoft:
-
Outlook UserVoice: Go to the Outlook UserVoice website and upvote the “Bring Back ‘Play My Emails’” suggestion. This platform is directly linked to Microsoft’s development team, so your votes matter.
-
Microsoft Support: Contact Microsoft support directly and express your desire to see the feature reinstated. While it might not lead to immediate action, it will contribute to the feedback.
