Hi,

I’ve got two outlook email accounts on my iphone and  both are constantly requiring me to re-enter my password. Its only started happening over the last 3 days and becoming increasingly annoying. I know other people that are having the same issues, so I’m not sure if its something to do with the latest IOS update. I would be grateful if anyone has any information on how to ressolve this. 

thank you

    I had the same problem a few months ago. I tried deleting my both email account and the Mail app from my ipad & reinstalling them - this didn’t work. The problem went away after a week or so, but I can’t recall doing anything that ‘cured’ the problem. In any case, the problem returned a few days ago! I consulted Apple Support, who have always been fantastic - they think that it’s a Microsoft Issue.

    The odd thing is I don’t get the problem on my (old) iPhone 6. Also, I’ve had iPads for a number of years and never had the issue until a few months ago, so I wonder it is in some way connected to the switch from iOS to iPadOS on iPads?

    I am using the IOS built-in mail app client when experiencing this issue connecting to my Outlook account (and my wife the same for hers). Is anyone experiencing this with say the Outlook mail app client on iphone?

    Yes, today the Outlook mail app asked me to sign in (but on my iPad) and the apple mail app did too, after a few day’s grace.  I am on OS14.2.
