Link Colors in Outlook iOS App
I've been working hard on my mobile versions lately, and I finally got my newsletters looking great in the Mail app on iOS. I switched over to the Outlook iOS app to see if I had banished the automatically added links (grrrr) and discovered that not only are all the automated links showing up in Outlook for iOS, but none of my link colors are being honored.
I use inline CSS for these a tags, but Outlook ignores the colors completely. Has anyone else seen this?
I've tried a few different things, and nothing seems to work. Is there a hack or a way to get Outlook for iOS to at least honor my inline CSS for link color?
I'd also love to get rid of the pesky automatically added links that are messing with my head and content.
Hi Jason,
What version of Outlook iOS app are you on? Outlook had a bug in a release that caused all links to be the default blue colour, and it lasted for a couple weeks or so. They recently pushed a released that fixed this issue (I think it was just last week). My version says it is 2.3.10, and all link colours for me are what I have defined them to be in the HTML.
As for a way around it in future, you can duplicate the link colour inline on a
<span>inside of the<a>.Thank you, Courtney! I have a relatively new iPhone and my auto-update wasn't turned on. When I updated Outlook, everything looked normal. I appreciate the help!
