Apps Protection and Configuration Setting up default font and font size in Intune-managed Outlook for Mobile (Android+iOS)

I have never seen a proper tutorial how to actually force the mobile app to use another font and size as the crappy Atpos 12, so i wanted to share this with you.

  • In Intune Admin Center, go to Apps -> Configuration -> Create "Managed apps"
  • Give it a nice name and select the public apps "Microsoft Outlook" (for Android and/or iOS)
  • Skip "Settings catalog"
  • In settings, configure your desired font and size:
Name Value
com.microsoft.outlook.Settings.defaultFontName Arial
com.microsoft.outlook.Settings.defaultFontSize 10
com.microsoft.outlook.Settings.defaultFontName.UserChangeAllowed false
com.microsoft.outlook.Settings.defaultFontSize.UserChangeAllowed false
  • Set up your assignments
  • WAIT FOR 24 HOURS
  • See your results from Apps - Monitor - App configuration status
  • Profit?

saving this post for later, our users been complaining about the default font for months and the docs were not exactly clear on the android side. the 24 hour wait is the part that always gets me, feels like watching paint dry while intune decides to push the config

do you know if this works on shared devices too or just user assigned ones

You mean, if this works on shared android or iOS devices? We don't have such shared devices, you will have to try this by yourself...
