Contacts - Outlook App vs Native Mail App (Apple) 

If you use the Outlook Web application downloaded from the App Store but still want your contacts local on your mobile device for phone number to name resolution you have 2 options. 

  1. Combine both the Outlook app with synchronizing “Contacts” only using the native mail app on your device. 

 

  1. Use an app that will allow you to move contacts from one mail account to another like “My Contacts Backup”.  The free version will migrate less the 500 contacts.  If you have more then 500 contacts the Pro version is required. 

 

  • Any contacts added in the future will need to be added to the account you migrated your Woodhouse contact to.  New contacts added to Woodhouse email contact will not automatically synchronize.  This process is just a point in time migration.
