Hover Feature for Calendar Outlook

Question

Hover Feature for Calendar Outlook

Reyna 0

Is there a feature we can activate in Outlook Calendar to hover over the time lines & dotted lines and it can show us the times of each line to assist when we have multiple calendars open for scheduling?

Specifically when I'm working I'm looking at multiple persons daily schedules to add meetings into their calendars. So the time zones & times all the way to the left get lost looking all the way to the other side with my eye sight but also to confirm the times I'm inputting into my template are correct so it would be another helpful feature that could be a double verification an make sure I'm not going over the times asked for.

Dear Reyna,

Unfortunately, Outlook on the web currently does not offer an option to display the time when hovering over calendar grid lines. For easier scheduling across multiple calendars, you can use Day view and enable Split view to display each person’s calendar side by side.

If you'd like to see a hover feature added, I suggest keeping an eye on the Microsoft Outlook(new) blog or the Microsoft 365 Roadmap | Microsoft 365 for any updates on this feature. In the meantime, I apologize for the inconvenience this may cause. I also strongly recommend that you share your detailed experience and feedback directly with the Microsoft product team through their official channels. This is the most effective way to make your voice heard and influence future feature improvements and adjustments.

You can visit the Outlook (new) · Community to submit a new idea or vote on existing one. The product team is in charge of this site, and they constantly check customer reviews and feedback. The higher the number of votes, the more attention the team will pay to it. Many features are developed and improved based on customer feedback. As a moderator, I will also pass along your feedback to the appropriate team for further consideration. While we don't directly influence product design, user feedback is actively reviewed and helps prioritize future development. If you’re unable to submit feedback yourself, please feel free to reach out to me, and I’ll be happy to submit it on your behalf.

I appreciate your kindness and understanding as we deal with these evolutionary product changes. Please get in touch if you need anything else.
