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.

    It's almost a year on, and i still miss this feature. Been looking for a workaround and can't find anything that comes close.

    Hi Peter,

    I've been using SpeakingEmail. It has the majority of features, possibly a few more that Outlook had. Obviously, it would have been better if MS had not dropped the feature.
