    I take pictures during inspections and then email them to the office. It's absolutely rediculous that they only show up in the body and have to be saved one at a time. Only 1 month ago I had a Blackberry Priv with the Android OS and Outlook, and it worked flawlessly sending pics as attachments that I could save all at once - just like on the desktop. Now I have a new Samsing S9+ and I no longer have this functionality - it's a big step backwards and very frustrating. What's the point of having it show up in the body anyways???

    I use Microsoft Lens to take pictures of my business receipts, which have to be submitted for reimbursement as attachments. Having pictures show inline in an Outlook email makes Lens useless. I can't get the pics off my phone in a usable fashion. They need to be attachments.

    Still no fix! It used to work flawless in the old Outlook app for Android. I don't understand this change.
