Outlook just got a major upgrade! Get ready to unlock a whole new level of personalization with AI-powered themes that are designed to make your inbox reflect your unique style.
Whether you’re using a Copilot-enabled subscription or a commercial license, you can now create personalized themes that evolve with your preferences.
Personalization Meets AI: Themes by Copilot
Starting today, Outlook introduces Themes by Copilot, an innovative new feature that allows users to customize their app using the power of generative AI.
These dynamic themes are available across all Outlook platforms, including mobile (iOS and Android), Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac, and Outlook on the Web.
Just like you add your personal touch to your workspace with a photo or favorite plant, Themes by Copilot gives your Outlook experience that personal flair.

And it’s not just about colors and fonts; it’s about creating an experience that feels uniquely yours. Imagine your email environment transforming to match your mood, location, or even the weather — all powered by AI.
A World of Possibilities with Over 100 Curated Destinations
With Themes by Copilot, you can take a virtual trip around the world. Choose from over 100 curated destinations, or create a theme inspired by your current location.
Whether it’s a serene beach in Honolulu or the vibrant cityscape of New York, your Outlook theme will be as dynamic as the world around you.
How It Works:
- The AI adjusts your theme based on your location, weather, or chosen style. You can even select how often your theme updates, whether it’s every few hours, daily, weekly, or monthly.
- If you’ve enabled location permissions, the “My Location” theme automatically adjusts to feature imagery specific to your locale — updating as you travel or even reflect the changing seasons.
Make It Your Own with Custom Styles
Each Copilot-generated theme comes with a fun accent color to complement the theme.
But that’s not all you can take your creativity further by selecting different styles such as realistic, oil painting, or cartoon for a completely personalized look.
The best part? The experience is intuitive, easy to navigate, and designed to be as fun as it is functional.
A Seamless Experience Across All Devices
Once you’ve selected your perfect theme, it’s easy to switch it up as often as you like through Appearance Settings.
Themes by Copilot offers a guided experience, ensuring that whether you’re on your mobile, desktop, or web app, the process is smooth and enjoyable.
Dynamic and Unique: No Two Themes Are Alike
What sets Themes by Copilot apart is the personalization and dynamic nature of each creation. Every theme is unique — just like you.
No two experiences will be the same, ensuring that your Outlook environment feels fresh, inspired, and distinctly yours.
Not Using Copilot? No Problem!
If you’re not using Copilot yet, don’t worry. Outlook has also rolled out a collection of stunning, non-Copilot-powered themes that make the app even more accessible and visually appealing.
These themes feature vibrant, high-quality imagery and are available across all devices.
From soft pastels to bold reds and purples, these themes cater to every mood and personality.
More Than Just a Theme: The Power of Copilot in Outlook
The introduction of Themes by Copilot builds upon the powerful functionality that Copilot already brings to Outlook.
Copilot helps users draft better emails, summarize long threads, and even prioritize their inbox.
In late 2024, Copilot will introduce Prioritize My Inbox for business accounts, which helps users manage their inbox by analyzing email content and context.
What’s Next?
Themes by Copilot is just one step in Outlook’s journey to bring more personalization, innovation, and ease to your experience.
I am so excited to see how can i customize my Outlook, and can’t wait to hear what you think.
