2026

Version 2026.3

  • šŸ”§ FixThe add-in now notices when Outlook is showing an outdated copy after an update and reloads itself automatically, so an update can no longer leave you with an empty window.
  • ⚔ ImprovedSome users saw an empty add-in window after our latest update, because Outlook kept showing an older copy of the add-in that no longer matched it. We have made changes on our side so this cannot happen after future updates. If your add-in window is still empty, a quick reload fixes it - the guide below walks you through it. How to fix an empty add-in window

Version 2026.2

  • šŸ”§ FixThe pinned pane no longer breaks when you read an email. On Mac, keeping the pane pinned and then opening a received message could show an error screen; the pane now simply waits until you are back in a draft.

Version 2026.1

  • šŸ†• NewYou can pin the task pane so it stays open while you work through one email after another.
  • šŸ†• NewA new Settings screen, opened from the link at the bottom of the add-in, brings your options together in one place - including showing or hiding the mailbox folder your personal templates live in.
  • šŸ†• NewDark mode. The add-in follows your system theme, or you can pick light or dark yourself in Settings - where you can also make the text smaller or larger. Both are remembered on each device.
  • šŸ†• NewBack up every template and folder in your personal or team store to a single file, and bring them back in again - including moving templates between a personal and a team store. A preview shows what will be added before anything happens, and nothing you already have is changed. How to export and import your templates
  • šŸ†• NewA new Diagnostics link at the bottom of the add-in lets you download or copy a report to send us when something goes wrong. It never contains your templates, and personal details are masked.
  • šŸ†• NewNew guides on which versions of Outlook and which accounts work, what to do if templates are missing, and a security page for IT and procurement reviews. Browse the guides
  • šŸ”§ FixYou stay signed in while you work, even with the pane open for a long time.
  • šŸ”§ FixYour templates stay where you left them: if the folder they live in is moved or archived, we now find it again automatically. What to do if templates are missing
  • šŸ”§ FixApplying a template reliably fills in the whole email - body, subject, attachments and recipients - including templates that only set the recipients.
  • šŸ”§ FixTemplates look the way you saved them: fonts, spacing, bullets and special characters stay put, including in templates you saved long ago.
  • šŸ”§ FixPictures show up every time - in shared templates, repeated logos and images linked from the web.
  • šŸ”§ FixTeam templates work with any subject, apply reliably and bring all their attachments across.
  • šŸ”§ FixDeleting or renaming always applies to the template you clicked, and saving tells you straight away if something did not work.
  • šŸ”§ FixSwitching to a different account shows that account's templates right away.
  • šŸ”§ FixIf an email contains something that cannot go into a template, such as a cloud attachment or a calendar invite, we tell you clearly.
  • šŸ“ ChangeClarified and updated privacy policy. Read the privacy policy
  • ⚔ ImprovedA cleaner main screen: your templates read as a compact folder tree, and the store and account you are using sit at the top with a quick way to switch either.

  • ⚔ ImprovedFolders and the welcome message can be collapsed, and they stay that way while you work.
