Not able to add Outlook.com Account (Personal) to iOS Mail

Hi,

I am not able to add my outlook.com email account to iOS Mail app. No other account is configured. I get redirected to the Microsoft Login, confirm my Login with 2FA app, and then I get this message after a few seconds.


"Account information cannot be verified"



It works flawlessly in the Microsoft Outlook app.


I would like to use the iOS Mail and Calendar apps - but it won't let me.


Thanks

Hi,

I'm not sure what you are trying to tell me but the steps you did were exactly what I did prior to getting the error.


Kind Regards

Hello and welcome to Apple Support Communities, MyFriendJack81,

If we understand your post correctly, you're getting an error when you try to add your Outlook account to iOS Mail but you're able to sign in with the same information on the web. We’d like to help.


Please make sure you're following these steps to add your account: Add an email account to your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
