Service change takes down Microsoft Outlook for iOS
"Users began complaining about access on Monday morning at 0845 UTC, and, just after midday (UTC), Microsoft confirmed: 'We've discovered some users may experience intermittent sign‑in failures, including 'too many requests' errors, or unexpected sign‑outs.'"
"A few hours after Microsoft confirmed the malfunction came the inevitable: 'We've identified a recent service change that is potentially contributing to impact.' Cue a rollback to see if the problem went away."
"Microsoft's status page still reports 'Service degradation' for its consumer products at the time of publication. It includes the text 'iOS users may experience issues accessing Outlook and Hotmail from the iOS default Mail app.'"
Microsoft Outlook on iOS experienced significant outages for over 24 hours, affecting user access to email. Users reported issues such as sign-in failures and unexpected sign-outs, leading to confusion and frustration. Microsoft acknowledged the problem and rolled back a recent service change, indicating recovery. However, users continued to report issues, and the status page noted ongoing service degradation. The situation highlighted both the challenges of rapid deployment and the importance of effective communication during outages.
