Outlook: Loop Components Read Support in Mail on Mobile

Loop components are live, interactive, collaborative objects that you can embed in Teams chats and now also in Outlook emails. When you send a Loop component, everyone in the email can view it inline, see changes instantly, and easily make edits. That means you can collaborate right inside an Outlook email message. Outlook mobile users will see the active Loop component — where changes made to the component across supported apps sync instantly — and then be able to tap on the component to edit it in the Microsoft 365 mobile app or if you are in Android in the Loop mobile app.

Support for Rich Text email formats is legacy and will not be improved in Outlook. For emails formatted as Rich Text, label footers will continue to accumulate at the bottom of email threads as before.
