n a bit of bad news for some who use Outlook, Microsoft confirmed this week that it has started showing more ads in the Android and iOS app to non-paying customers. People without Microsoft 365 subscriptions can avoid ads to some extent by using Focused Inbox for important emails only, but ads will still be shown in the "Other" section of the app.
In related news, Microsoft has also started testing ads in the Microsoft Store. Developers can now register to start participating in this initiative by filling in a form. The way that ads will be surfaced is quite similar to other digital storefronts. For example, if you search for an app, you may see ads for other apps on the side with the "Ad" badge displayed.
When it comes to other Microsoft apps and services, Whiteboard is set to receive a slew of new features soon. This includes embedded online video support, timer, attribution, commenting, and more. Similarly, Teams has netted a bunch of new features for educators and students too. This includes a new experience called "Reflect" and a revamped home page. Finally, frontline workers utilizing Microsoft's Kaizala should know that the messaging service is being retired after one year in favor of Teams.
