how can I remove the ads from my email in outlook on my android phone?

I have a paid subscription to Microsoft 365.

In Outlook on my pixel, I am seeing ads that I don't see on my notebook or desktop device.

If I delete 1 ad, another replaces it.

This is a new (less than a week) happening.

It's annoying, especially since I pay for Microsoft 365 and have for many years.

Thanks,

Sally

    Thanks @schneid!

    This worked like a charm. It was frustrating as the ads appeared out of nowhere a month or two ago.

    I added/created an "outlook.com" alias account using the direcitions(took all of 2 minutes). I won't use the outlook.com email but this associated alias prevented the ads from appearing.

    Thanks again for taking the time to offer this solution.
    cheers!

    My motto is win a few, lose a lot. It's always nice to get the rare win these days.

    Good for you. I get one email add everytime I open outlook. Not a biggy as I just delete it then leave the app open throughout the day. Doesn't happen on outlook for the pc - so my 'alias' are all registered ok

    Hi, in my case my outlook on PC never displayed ads even when

    I had no alias configured.

    It's an Android Outlook issue.

    Once I configured an alias with a outlook.com email address, the ads on my Android stopped.

    It wasn't a big annoyance to have the ads on Outlook Android, but it was also a matter of principle. I have subscription, I shouldn't be receiving ads.

    As I mentioned, after the configuration of the alias, The ads have ceased.
