Bradley Chambers writing for *The Sweet Setup*:

> Email apps are highly personal. Everyone manages their email differently. For some, it’s a to-do list. For others, it’s a temporary holding place until emails are processed into a task management system. One thing is for sure: everyone with an iOS device probably uses email.

> After looking at the wide range of third-party apps, [Outlook](https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/microsoft-outlook-email-calendar/id951937596?mt=8&at=11l7ja&ct=tss) is the most polished, and it’s the one we recommend as your first choice when moving away from the built-in iOS client.

As shocked as I was to read Outlook being touted as the best third-party email app for iOS, I was even more shocked to agree. That’s right, *I agree*.

Outlook is a beautifully designed app. Its integration with my calendar is seamless which is greatly important to me. I’m asked to be in meetings a few times a week, and Outlook is currently the best experience to glance at availability and easily RSVP.

I don’t make a habit of recommending Microsoft products, but when something is this good, I just can’t help it. I recommend Outlook for iOS, and obviously I recommend you read the full review.
