These apps, such as People, File Search, and Calendar, are designed to make your workday smoother by providing quick access to essential functions directly from the Windows 11 taskbar.

The Calendar app is like having a personal planner that keeps you on track. Just as you would glance at a wall calendar to check your schedule, this app lets you view your appointments and meetings with ease. It helps you manage your time effectively, ensuring you never miss an important meeting or deadline.
These companion apps integrate seamlessly with Microsoft 365, meaning they work together like a well-coordinated team. They streamline your workflow by reducing distractions and allowing you to focus on what truly matters. Whether you're a lawyer, manager, or HR staff, these tools are designed to enhance your productivity by keeping everything you need within easy reach.
