(Updated) Microsoft Outlook for iOS/Android: Copilot shows users important emails in new priority view [MC1089318]

Message ID: MC1089318 (Updated)

Updated February 4, 2026: This feature has been removed from outlook for iOS and Android in response to user feedback and costs. We apologize for any inconvenience. 

In Microsoft Outlook for iOS/Android, the new priority view will help users find what’s important in their Inbox by highlighting high priority emails and ones that need a reply.

A Microsoft 365 Copilot license is required to use this feature.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 495261.

[When this will happen:]

General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out late June 2025 and expect to complete by late December 2025.

[How this will affect your organization:]

After this rollout, users can enable this feature in Outlook Settings > Copilot > Prioritize > Priority view. Users can choose the number of days of email to be included in this view (from one to three days) and choose if they want to see all emails or just unread emails.

Left: Users who have enabled the Prioritize by Copilot feature can access the new view by tapping the sparkle icon at the top of the message list. Then users can swipe between the two groups of emails: High priority (middle) and Needs replies (right). For each group, users will see a filtered view of their message list to just emails that are high priority or need a reply, respectively. From here, users can take a bulk action on those emails or give feedback on the groups.

This new feature will be available by default for users who have enabled Prioritize by Copilot by going to Settings > Copilot.

[What you need to do to prepare:]

This rollout will happen automatically by the specified dates with no admin action required before the rollout. Users who have enabled the Prioritize by Copilot feature will start seeing the new view. You may want to notify your users about this change and update your relevant documentation.
