Outlook account keeps logging out

For the last week I’ve had to log into my outlook account every day on my phone. Why am I being logged out? I’ve tried deleting the account and reinstalling it but that hasn’t made any difference. I have iOS 14.2 on an apple 7 phone.

iPhone 7, iOS 14

I’ve been experiencing the same issue. My Microsoft email keeps logging out on its own and failing to fetch my emails. This time it says my password is wrong when it definitely is not. I am able to log in to my Microsoft live account in a browser on my iPhone with using the password I have saved, but when I attempt to use this password for my email to link it shows it is incorrect. Please help. I’m having to look at my emails in a browser now.

Apple have just settled a class action lawsuit because of 'software updates' that slowed older iPhones down (don't laugh...Apple claimed to 'save battery life').....as opposed to forcing you to upgrade to a new iPhone. Its interesting these latest 'upgrades' and these frustrating problems happen to coincide (yet again) with a new Apple iPhone lunch (the version 12). These nagging and frustrating logout out, log in problems can presumably be solved by purchasing an iPhone 12. They can also be solved by purchasing an Android.
