Outlook Mobile for Android Sync Settings?

Anonymous

I just installed Outlook Mobile for work as my company moved to Office 365.

Here's my question, whenever I have previously used Outlook there was a setting option to sync email at specific intervals such as every 5 minutes, every hour, manual sync, etc. I can't find this setting any longer.

Where did it go? Thanks!

Hello,

Welcome to Microsoft Community and thank you for posting your query.

I would like to inform you that the sync interval  cannot be set for the Outlook application on android phone. Outlook sync automatically whenever it is connected to internet, it can be also sync by swiping the screen downwards.

I hope the above information helps. Let us know if you need further assistance.

Thank you.

    Still can't believe this hasn't been fixed....ridiculous that there is not an option to sync manually. Or only between certain times.

    Every time I want to get closer to microsoft, they do backwards things like this.  Should I move away from Microsoft?

    Hi, Parth P Patel. If you are still there, can you please tell me if this means that I don't need to do anything to get my mail? If my android phone is connected to the Internet, as soon as I receive an e-mail on my Outlook account, I receive it immediately on my phone and get a notification sound? That would be OK with me. Thanks for your help.
