Update my Microsoft 365 account to Exchange in Outlook (iOS)

If you're using Microsoft 365 as POP or IMAP, your data (including mail, contacts, and calendars) might not be connected to your email and could be lost if you delete that account. To prevent any data loss, and to get the most secure, fast, and reliable email, switch your POP or IMAP account to Exchange.

  1. Open Outlook. (Don't have the app? Download it at the iTunes App Store and follow these steps to set it up.)
  2. Tap Menu, then Gear Button Settings.

  4. To add your Exchange account, tap Add Mail Account, then Add Email Account.

  5. Enter your Microsoft 365 email address and tap Add Account.

  6. If your admin enabled multi-factor authentication (MFA), verify your account or set up the Authenticator app.
  7. Enter your Microsoft 365 password and tap Sign In. (You might need to choose your account type as Work or School.)
    Enter email password and sign in
  8. Note: If you forgot your email password, here's how to reset it.
