Using Outlook for iOS for personal email and calendar management
If Outlook on iPhone keeps prompting to sign in to Gmail, use these steps:
- Update Outlook for iOS to the latest version. Recurring password prompts can happen after security standards change.
- Remove the Gmail account from Outlook for iOS, then add it again:
- Open Outlook for iOS
- Go to Settings > Accounts
- Select the Gmail account and remove it
- Add the account again
- If adding Gmail manually, make sure Gmail is set up with IMAP in Outlook mobile.
- In Gmail, enable IMAP in Gmail settings. Outlook Mobile requires IMAP to work with Gmail.
- If the prompts continue, contact the Gmail service provider for account-specific sign-in issues, because Gmail is a non-Microsoft account.
