Can I share my contact list using the mobile app, or is this feature only available on the desktop/browser version?
Yeah, you’re right that Outlook’s mobile app doesn’t directly support contact lists, but there are a few workarounds you can try:
Method 1: Use Browsers on Your Phone
- Just open Outlook in your phone’s browser and access your contact lists there. This isn’t the most convenient option, but it works.
Method 2: Create a Separate Mailbox and Account
- You can set up a separate mailbox with an Exchange Online license, which would allow you to share contacts by adding that mailbox to your devices. This method isn’t ideal for large groups, though.
Method 3: Third-Party Tools
- Companies like FullContact, Add2Outlook, and CirAsync can help you manage shared contact lists across your devices. Some of these tools can be a bit tricky to set up, but they’ve had success with clients in the past.
Method 4: Shared Mailbox Method
- Create a shared mailbox and add your contacts there. Then, make sure this mailbox is added to your mobile devices. This method should sync your contact lists to your mobile Outlook app.
These are your best bets, but you might need to get creative with how you set up your contact lists to get full mobile support. Hope this helps.
