In Outlook on iOS, there is the option to add Meister Task as an addin so you can create tasks directly from an email. I am able to check the box that i want to add it as an available function in Outlook but when i actually try to use it once enabled, it does not show up as an enabled add-in. It functions as expected in my desktop outlook. any ideas? thanks!

    Hi @Alec Elmore

    Yes this is possible. You just have to add MeisterTask as add-in in your Outlook app.

    The impossible does not exist! The solution has just not been found yet!

    @Rooster McNugget Thanks, unfortunately that's what's not working on my phone. if you see these two screen shots, you will see i have it checked as an add-in, but when i am in email, even though it is selected, it doesnt show as an option to use it. Confirming this is all being done in Outlook on iOS. thx
