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.

    There is no option but you do hack by using signature. Choose the font you needed and put in the top of your signature and start writing in between.

    Example

    Signature is

    Name

    Adresss.

    Ajjhdkdld

    Then

    Pase you font any word here it will take same color and font available.

    Name

    Adresss.

    Ajjhdkdld

    I'm using Outlook Lite on Android. The font is tiny, and doesn't conform to my OS settings. Also, I don't see an option to increase font size in the app. This makes the app unusable.

    Thanks!

    This works great - I've my signature which is smaller font and did add above the text as normally outlook font/size. I then edit that text always when starting to write the email on phone. Looks good!

    I do not have the answer but I do have a work around. If you copy pasta an ‘e-signature’ you have set up on your work station prior to an email on the mobile app, it is possible to copy that signature, then start typing off of the format you have on the signature on your body paragraph thus changing your format for the entire email. (*NOTE: You will have to do this each time you want to change the font on mobile for a professional email.*)

    Example>>

    Explained Version:

    Open Outlook on your Laptop/Computer Workstation. Navigate to “File” in the top left hand corner of the app. Next in the lower left hand corner, click “Options.” From there you will want to click on “Mail” and under composed messages, the third option down will have the prompt “Create or modify signatures for messages.” Click the “Signatures…” button to the right of it to edit your signature how you wish. Make sure to click “OK” after you are finished.

    Short Version:

    Outlook>File>Options>Mail>Signatures…>(Insert custom signature here)>OK

    Pain in the butt I know, however it’s nice to know if you’re laptop dies on you out in the field and you’re in a pinch. Hope this helps and as always have a great rest of your day.

    (Edit: Didn’t read the thread enough to realize people already explained this before but hopefully my explanation of the process helped people that are still confused.)
