Yes, pretty much. It looks the same as regular unread emails except they identify them with “Ad”. It’s distracting and annoying and you can’t remove it.
Yeah that’s gross, from what I’m seeing Microsoft is saying if you do not have an email that is attached to a paid O365 account and have the free mobile app they fund it by those ads. If you do pay for the O365 subscription on your account or your work email is one Id try this: Settings. Tap Security and Privacy >Privacy>Other Privacy Settings> Ads. Tap Reset Advertising ID and confirm your changes.
If that doesn’t work maybe uninstall the app and reinstall making sure the playstore is logged in with the email tied to the O365 account
That blows, curious if that does anything.
I don’t even have a “Security and Privacy”, just a “Privacy Settings”, and then in there I don’t see anything about Reset Advertising Id, just something like “Advertising Preferences” that has “Allow Outlook to s hare data to show you more relevant ads”.
I think likely what I would have to do is add a personal email account to outlook, and then pay for a subscription on that, to get it to hide ads for my work email - but I don’t really want to have to add a second email, I just want it for my work email, and then ideally I’d just pay through Play Store or whatever, but they don’t even allow that.
Oh well. Maybe one day I will stop being lazy and find another email client that works well with my work email and has busy hours etc.
