On the new version of Outlook, the only snooze options for calendar reminders are 5 minutes, 10 minutes, 30 minutes, 1 hour, and 2 hours. The problem is when the calendar reminder is set to hit a day before the appointment, none of those intervals are enough to get it out of your face for the rest of the day. Is there a way to bring back the 12 hour snooze, and the 5 minutes before snooze, at the least?

Dear Lisa R_636,
Good day! Thank you for posting to Microsoft Community. We are happy to assist you.
Per your description,I understand you want to bring back the 12 hour snooze, and the 5 minutes before snooze,please correct me if my understanding is wrong.
Per researching, I am sorry to say that this feature is not available in the new outlook.
I understand your frustration, however, most of these features are in active development and are expected to roll out this month. For your reference please seeMicrosoft 365 Roadmap | Microsoft 365.
In the meantime, I suggest you create an entry in the Feedback Portal Outlook · Community (microsoft.com), and comments there as well.
Should you have any questions and concerns please do not hesitate to contact me. Look forward to hearing from you.
Thank you once again for your precious time.
Best regards,
Microsoft community
Dear Eleni,
In previous versions of Outlook we could receive clear pop-ups of our calendar items on our screens. In addition there was a possibility to postpone/snooze for f.e. another 10 minutes and receive again same pop-up notification. It looks like this is not possible anymore in the new/latest version of Outlook. Can you confirm if this is correct and when yes, can this option be reconsidered?
Thanks in advance for your support.

I agree. We need this functionality. Our whole development team does not like the new outlook calendar notifications. We have a lot of meetings. Please bring the snooze button back. I also only get a popup that might end up behind another application with no sound notification.
Please can you confirm when the new outlook will allow us to increase the amount of snooze time for my reminders? 2 hours is just not enough and it is frustrating that it continuously pops up when I want it to be moved to 8 hours or 0.5day or a day and even a week's time. It's not a great user friendly function at the minute and the older version is much better.
