Summary:
Starting June 2026, administrators can use new Intune app configuration keys to allow or block users from changing the default compose font name and size in Outlook for iOS and Android. By default, user changes remain blocked unless explicitly enabled by administrators.

Details:
[Introduction]
To balance organizational branding with user flexibility, administrators will be able to control whether users can change the default compose font in Outlook for iOS and Android. When a default font name or size is set using Microsoft Intune app configuration policies, new configuration keys will allow administrators to decide if users can modify those defaults.
[When this will happen]
General Availability (Worldwide): We will begin rolling out in early June 2026 and expect to complete by late June 2026.
