MFA – Manage App Passwords

Some apps require the use of app passwords. For this reason, we recommend using the Outlook App (iPhoneAndroid) rather than the native email app.

If using the native email client on your phone (not the Outlook app), follow these steps to sign in with an app password on your native email phone app.
