Create an email signature on a mobile device
Replace the default mobile sign-off with your approved work details.
Before you start
- The wording and contact details approved by the office.
Follow these steps
-
Open Settings
Tap your Outlook profile picture or initials at the upper left, then tap the Settings cog.
-
Find Signature
Under the Mail settings, tap Signature. If needed, scroll down the settings list.
-
Choose per-account signatures
If you use more than one account, turn on Per Account Signature. Locate your work address so the business wording does not replace a personal account’s sign-off.
-
Enter your work details
Delete the default text and type the approved wording. A simple mobile version can contain your name, Initech Solutions, work phone and work email on separate lines.
-
Save and return
Tap the tick or save control if shown, then go back to Inbox. Some versions save as you leave the page; reopen Signature to check the text remained.
-
Test a new email
Tap Compose and check the From address. Confirm the signature appears at the end, then send a short test to yourself and check the received message.
You have finished when…
- A message sent from your work account contains the correct mobile signature.
Helpful tips
- Use plain, short contact details for dependable mobile formatting. The mobile signature editor may not reproduce a complex desktop logo or table layout.
- If the office adds a company signature automatically, follow its instructions to avoid duplicates.
Something looks different?
No signature appears
Check the correct account and default signature selections. Create a new message after saving; an already-open draft may not update.
There are two signatures
The company may add one automatically after sending. Ask the office which signature should be used before adding another.
The signature is different on my phone
The Outlook mobile app has its own signature setting. Configure and test it separately rather than assuming every app synchronises signatures.
