The update Outlook.com app for Android bumps the app version to 7.8.2.12.49.7564. The update lets users access emails from any time period via the Outlook server-side search. Earlier, users could only access those mails which were downloaded on to the Android device.
Another new feature is unlimited sync, which syncs all email history to the device so that users can access all their emails even in offline mode.
Another new feature for the Outlook.com app for Android, first introduced for the Web last week, is alias support. With the new Android app, users can now send email from their new Outlook.com alias accounts, in case they don't want to share their personal email id with others.
The Outlook.com app for Android update also lets users choose their Outlook.com app interface colours from 8 different options, a feature already present in the Outlook.com's web interface.
Other features in the Outlook.com app for Android update include the ability to manage and create vacation replies, and support for traditional Chinese language.
