Open a shared calendar in Outlook for iOS

You’ve been able to open shared calendars in Outlook for iOS and Outlook for Android for a little while now, however this update makes it a lot easier.

How did Shared Calendars on Outlook for Mobile previously work?

• The person who owned the calendar would send you a sharing invite
• You accept the invite from within the Outlook mobile app
• The shared calendar is added to your phone.

With this update to Outlook for iOS, you can now open calendars that are already shared with you.
