Microsoft Phasing Out My Day Feature in Microsoft 365
In a recent announcement, Microsoft revealed its plans to discontinue the My Day feature within the Microsoft 365 app, focusing instead on transitioning towards an AI-centric user experience. This change is set to take place starting January 2025 and will primarily impact Enterprise users of Microsoft 365.
Current Functionality of My Day
The My Day feature, which is currently accessible via the calendar icon in the top-right corner of the app, allows users to view their daily schedule along with a to-do list. This functionality has been a staple for many users who rely on it for daily organization and task management.
Future of the Microsoft 365 App
While Microsoft has not provided detailed insights into how the app will evolve beyond My Day, it has emphasized that the Microsoft 365 app will serve as the hub for “Copilot for Work.”The introduction of AI-driven productivity functionalities will be located in the Copilot tab, although it remains uncertain whether any feature will fill the void left by My Day’s discontinuation.
AI Integration Trends
This initiative to pivot towards AI is part of a broader strategy by Microsoft to incorporate artificial intelligence across its platforms. Tools like GitHub Copilot have demonstrated significant productivity benefits, yet the redundancy of AI features in Windows, web browsers, and various mobile applications has raised questions about their implementation.
Impact on Microsoft 365 Web Endpoints
In tandem with these changes, Microsoft confirmed that the adjustments would also extend to several web endpoints, including www.microsoft365.com, www.office.com, and www.m365.cloud.microsoft. However, it’s important to note that the discontinuation of the My Day feature will exclusively affect the Microsoft 365 app for Enterprise users and will not impact other applications such as Outlook, To-Do, or the Calendar apps.
