The iOS Outlook app no longer has the ‘shared mailbox’ feature. However, follow this guide for a simple way to continue to gain access from the mailboxes that you do share by adding it as an account rather than a shared mailbox.

Before completing this, you must first have installed and configured the Outlook mobile app on your device. If you have not yet done this, go to your app store and search OWA (Outlook). This app is available on both Apple and Android devices. You will need to download this app and login using your full email address. If you need further help, please refer to the guide.
