Changing Font on Outlook Mobile App for Android

Is it possible to change the font on the Outlook mobile app for android? I don't see an option to change the font within the actual app and even if I change the font for the entire phone it still appears as Calibri. I want to change it to Times New Roman (consistent with my desktop default font). I'm using a Samsung Galaxy S10+, but I do not think that makes a difference.

    Hi Everyone,

    Please stop blaming the creators. They provide us with something better than nothing. If you think outside the box, you still have the option to set the default font according to your preference.

    1. Send yourself an email from a laptop or desktop using your desired font, font size, and color.
    2. Open that email on your Android or iOS device and copy the desired font.
    3. Go to the Outlook settings on your Android or iOS device and click on Signature.
    4. Remove the available text and paste the copied font and save it.

    Although the default Outlook font will appear when you type the first letter, you can start writing your email from the signature text to continue using your preferred font. This works for both new drafts and responses to received emails.

    Give it a try and thank me later. There's always a solution if you consider the creators.

    The same with Ī and T. While I understand it's not common, this does present itself a problem. In my case at least, my name is spelled Īan, with the macron. While I can leave it off for font sake, I don't feel I should have to.

    This is not acceptable. How can we push to Microsoft to support this?

    Perfect!! my Android email fonts are finally same as the PC outlook fonts.

    I have noticed when you change the font size in the Outlook web environment. the font size in the app is also changed. 

    Settings > View all Outlook settings > Mail > Compose and Reply.
