Outlook keeps logging me out every day (both on phone and laptop).

It keeps making me log back in (via the number confirmation system) which is annoying because I have to have my phone on hand at all times to confirm my laptop, and I have to actively check outlook every day just to make sure I haven't missed any emails due to outlook randomly logging me out. Is there a way to bypass this? It's getting very frustrating to deal with.

    I also have the same issue, it started logging me out last week. I came here seeking answers and instead found that Microsoft doesn't care. I guess I will switch to google, I already have multiple google accounts and they always run much more smoothly than outlook. Do better, Microsoft, your inability to address the myriad of issues with your software is well known and you are a laughing stock in the tech community.

    No words pertaining to security or logging into the account are mentioned in (at least my) settings in Outlook on the web. Your lack of proper response to the issue that is now being experienced very widely is disappointing. I'm not sure how possible it is for you to escalate it to any higher-ups, but, if you read the many responses here, it is quite evident that people are tired of waiting and will simply switch to the competitor's side.
    Best regards.

    Same issue here. I use outlook web in edge browser on a macbook air, and I've been getting logged out every night for the last few weeks. Yesterday, I was abruptly logged out during the work day while I was composing an email.

    Side note: I haven't experienced the attachment issue some are describing here, but around the same time the logout issue started, outlook stopped displaying images in my email as if the links were all broken. That issue seemed to be resolved as of yesterday but we'll see if it stays that way.

    Microsoft - you have many frustrated users here. Please take note and RESPOND in some way, even if just to say you're working on a known issue.
