    Why is this such a difficult request for Microsoft? Most business users are on Office 365 and are reliant on the Outlook mobile app for corporate mail. It's ridiculous for Microsoft to not support HTML signatures in Android given most companies' corporate style guidelines for signature blocks and branding. I totally agree with the user who pointed out how sloppy this looks for mobile users. If Microsoft can't deliver this basic functionality for users, it shouldn't be in this business.

    By locking the "Improve HTML Support" thread on UserVoice with the 'Declined' response, Microsoft is effectively ignoring all of the rest of us who would vote for this and saying that they are not interested in even knowing how many users NEED this feature.

    O.k.... so they locked it and dont read the hoards of people since then who want this feature....

    So how about you start a NEW one and right off the top in your first post make sure you strongly let them know that literally thousands of people after it was  locked want this feature too.

    And strongly urge them to NOT disable.. block or turn your NEW post off.

    I found a way to make it work on my S8+ with formatted text. I did not try to include images:

    1. Set up your HTML signature on Outlook on your PC
    2. Send a blank message to yourself including only your signature as you want it to appear.
    3. Open the email you received on your PC.
    4. Right-click on the email text and click 'view source'

    ***Notepad should have opened and displays <html... to </html>***

    1. Select all and copy. 
    2. Paste into a new email
    3. Open the email on your phone.
    4. Copy everything (<html... to </html>)
    5. Navigate your Android device to settings -> signature and then paste in everything.

    Voila! Do NOT go back and alter the signature after the fact. It will only show you the text and all the formatting will be gone until you paste in the HTML once again!

    PS: I just tried to add photos to mine but it did not work. I think this is because the images were not hosted on the web. I think adding photos would work fine as long as they are hosted on the web somewhere. I think the HTML you would use is something like what I pasted below from this instructional link

    <img src="http://your.image.url/folder/filename.jpg">

    Hope this helps,

    Hi Derek,

    I suggested Richard a workaround solution, but its not consistent so I'd prefer not to share it publicly.

    For the better explanation of the issue, better contact our related team - Outlook mobile In-app support. The engineers in the team will provide you with the best suggestions for Outlook Mobile client issues.

    Thanks for your understanding,

    Nemanja

    ***UPDATED on 6/13/2019*** Since lot of community members asked for the workaround, I have posted it. Please navigate to the last page of this thread to find it.
