Add your Office 365 Email Account on iOS

If you have an iOS device (iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch), you can set up your email account to receive emails on that device.

With iOS devices, you can use either the Mail application, that comes with the phone, or the Outlook for iOS application, available from the App Store. It is recommended to use Outlook for iOS, as this is designed with Office 365 in mind.
