Using Outlook for Android in business environments for email and scheduling
Same issue. Ticwatch Pro 5 watch + OnePlus 11
Lots of reports filed already across Answers.Microsoft but nobody from Microsoft really wants to confirm the issue? Just sad.

EDIT: September 13, 2024:
As of Outlook version 4.2435.1 Outlook is working again on my watch for both email and calendar events. I had to wait a little bit after I installed this new version before calendar events started sinking, but everything does work now.
Original message:
When I launch the Outlook app on my Watch Ultra I get the error in below:
"Add an account on mobile to use the app"
I am running the Outlook app on my phone (S21) and have multiple accounts (Hotmail and Gmail) set up in the Outlook app.
The app refuses to open normally and function. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the app on my watch. I've installed the app on the watch from the Play Store on my phone, and from the Play Store on the watch.
No change.
When I set up my Galaxy Watch Ultra I did not do a restore from my previous Galaxy watch, and I also cleared cache on the watch after setup, so the watch is as fresh as can be. The watch is up-to-date w/the most recent FW from Samsung, ver AXG2.
Others are reporting the same issue:

Please release an updated version of the Outlook app for Android watches that fixes this problem. Currently the Outlook Android watch app is unusable.

Same issue on Watch 4
Ich habe inzwischen den Microsoft Kundenservice kontaktiert. Via Chat habe ich sogar ein Ticket bekommen. Das war es dann auch mit dem Support. Erst wurde ich nach demauchbim Internet stehenden Tricks und Kniffe befragt die ich auch schon probiert habe. Dann wurde mir auch dieses Forum genannt. Aber konkret wurde nicht auf das Problem nicht eingegangen. Warum Outlook plötzlich nicht mehr funktioniert mit Waer OS! Alles im Allem eine sehr traurige Veranstalltung! Mir ist irgend etwas nicht ganz klar. Kundenservice habe ich anders in Erinnerung. Mir wurde immer beim Training gesagt das ich mich konkret mit dem Problem des Kunden beschäftigen soll. Dazu gehört auch wenn ich das Problem nicht lösen kann, mir Hilfe von Kollegen zu suchen. Meine Erfahrung war hier der Kundenservice ist so gut geschult, dass ich mir irgend wie komisch vorkommen überhaupt angerufen zu haben. Also meine Smartwaches müssen für eine Zeit wohl ohne Oulook auskommen. Schade und es hat immer so gut funktioniert!
I have the same message "Add an account on Mobile to use the app" on my new Samsung Galaxy Ultra watch as do the Samsung staff at the Samsung experience centre in London. This is a major disappointment and has lost me a lot of time. You'd think that these apps would be tested BEFORE release. Come on Microsoft.
