This does, however, not mean that COM/Managed Add-ins are going anywhere. Microsoft is aggressively pushing the new Office JS extensibility model which allows developers to write integrations for MS Office using web technologies such as JavaScript and HTML. This can cause some confusion as we’ve always referred to the classic COM / Managed Office add-ins as “add-ins” and the new JavaScript/HTML Office Apps as “apps”.īoth these technologies are now referred to as “Office Add-ins”, although we’ll still refer to the traditional COM based add-ins as “COM / Managed Add-ins”. It is a nice touch and something I’m sure Microsoft will build upon in the future.Īpps for Office and Apps for SharePoint have been rebranded as Office Add-ins and SharePoint Add-ins. The Clutter functionality examines what you’ve done in the past to determine which messages to move. In a way it reminds me of the Gmail tabs that automatically sort similar mails. The Clutter folder’s aim is to help you focus on important messages by automatically moving low priority messages to the Clutter folder. You’ll notice the list also contains a “Browse Web Locations” option which provides you with the ability to attach files from services like OneDrive directly to your email – a nice idea!Īlthough not entirely new to Outlook 2016, I’ve also noticed the Clutter folder that was added to my Outlook 2013 (this is probably because I use Office 365 Exchange). It would be interesting to see if Microsoft will provide some sort of extensibility for the search box in order for Outlook developers to add their own search terms and functionality to Tell Me.Īttaching files to emails now presents the user with a list of recently used items instead of the traditional “Browse for file” dialog window we’ve come to know over the years. For example, in the following screenshot, I wanted to show the BCC Field and all I had to do was type “bcc” in the Tell Me search box. Tell Me is an interesting new feature in Outlook 2016 that saves the user time by allowing them to search for something directly from either the Explorer or Inspector ribbons. The default theme is called “Colorful” and changes the title bar/header of Outlook to a blue color to fit in with the new modern apps for Windows. The most obvious change you’ll notice in Outlook 2016 is the new color scheme. The most noticeable changes in the Microsoft Outlook 2016 user interface are as follows.
