Why is the Play My Emails Feature in the Outlook email app for iPhone being retired in June 2024?

I use this application on my phone for work on a daily basis. We’re often on the go without access to a computer with windows 11 installed.

Is there a plan to replace/upgrade this feature in the app?

The first time I heard about this was on 5/24/23, less than a week before the feature is going to be removed. No other information was provided via the message in the app.

Thank you for your assistance.

    I did and I can assure you that many others are experiencing challenges with the feature being retired.

    That’s really sad. I process things so much better when it is auditory. I switched to the outlook app for this feature and now I don’t see a reason to stay on it. I really hope it comes back or co-pilot can do something for me. Is there anything in co-pilot that reads email to me?

    This was a great feature. As others have said, a real time-saver. Please bring it back.
