Send Availability feature removed from Outlook for iOS?

I have been making regular use of the "Send Availability" feature in the Outlook app for iOS. Recently though, I can't seem to access this. Previously, there was a 'Calendar' button above the keyboard when replying to emails, which allowed easy selection of free timeslots in my Calendar. When I tap the Calendar button now, it just tries to create an event.

Hoping that I am missing something, rather than the feature having been removed?

    Thanks for flagging. It seems Microsoft quietly pushed this out in an update. It's on my iOS app now.

    I don't think so, but for that you can schedule a poll. It will give you options to select slots from your calendar and the others must vote on it.

    Obvs a workaround and not a fix.

    YOU MADE MY DAY!!!! You would think that with all of the uproar about the perceived loss of "Send Availability" that someone would have highlighted the addition of this icon - it works for me on my iPhone - but I could swear it was not there a few months ago
