You can now choose different fonts when composing email in Outlook for Android and iOS



 Microsoft 365 Insider Blog:

Hi, Insiders! My name is Beth Jester, and I’m a Product Manager on the Outlook team. I’m very excited to share that you can now choose different fonts when composing an email in Outlook for Android and iOS.

Try out fonts in Outlook for Android and iOS​

The same fonts you are accustomed to in other Microsoft 365 apps are now available in Outlook for Android and iOS, including everything from Aptos to Comic Sans to Wingdings. The ability to change fonts was the most requested feature from Outlook mobile users – we’ve heard you, and it’s here!

Whether you want to change the font in the body of an email to be more expressive, in your email signature for personal or organizational branding purposes, or in your automatic replies to make them stand out, you can now do it all on your mobile device. We’ve also added support for all the same fonts in the reading pane, too, keeping the sender’s expression intact. We will continue to improve the email formatting experience over time, so all requests are welcome!

How it works​

  1. When composing an email, updating your signature, or editing your automatic replies text on your Android or iOS device, select the familiar Formatting button (the A with a pencil) on the toolbar.

    The Formatting button on Outlook mobile is highlighted.
  2. You will notice a new option in the formatting toolbar to select your font.

    Font options are shown on Outlook mobile, like Aptos.
  3. Choose the font you would like to use, and you’re on your way!

    A list of fonts is shown on Outlook mobile.
NOTE: Fonts that have not been used recently will not be available offline.

Availability​

Fonts are available to Android Beta users running version 4.2427.0 or later of the app, and iOS TestFlight users running version 4.2442.0 or later. We are slowly rolling this feature out to production users running version 4.2452.0 or later in order to monitor bugs and feedback.

Feedback​

We’d love to know what you think of this new addition to Outlook for Android and iOS, and what else is important to you while you’re composing an email on mobile.

Send us your feedback by going to Settings > Help & Feedback > Send Feedback in the Outlook app. Please use the hashtag #OutlookMobileFonts in your response so we can quickly identify feedback on this feature, and #OutlookMobileFormatMe to let us know what else you need to help make your mobile emails beautiful and professional.
