Better OOF watches your Outlook calendar and automatically sets the right out-of-office reply the moment a matching event starts — and clears it the moment it ends. No more forgotten OOFs, no more manual toggling.
Powerful rules engine, flexible templates, and smart calendar awareness — all inside Outlook.
Define rules that match events by duration, location, keywords, category, or "show as" status. Target specific calendars or watch them all.
Write rich templates with dynamic variables — {{eventSubject}},
{{returnDate}}, and more.
Separate replies for internal and external senders.
Better OOF signs every reply it sets with an invisible watermark. It will never overwrite an OOF you set yourself — unless you explicitly allow it.
OOF turns on when your event starts and off when it ends. Works across Outlook Web and Desktop simultaneously without conflicts.
Pause automation for 1 hour, the rest of the day, or until tomorrow. Resume with one click. Your rules wait, not vanish.
A clean history of every time OOF was set or cleared — which rule triggered it, which template was used, and when. No noise, only real changes.
Three steps and you never think about OOF again.
Sideload the manifest in Outlook (Web or Desktop) and sign in with your Microsoft 365 account. Better OOF only requests calendar read and mailbox settings access.
Tell Better OOF which calendar events should trigger an OOF — a full-day event, any meeting longer than 1 hour, events marked as "Out of office", or anything else. Write a template for each scenario.
Enable the add-in and let it run. Better OOF polls your calendar in the background and handles everything automatically. Your OOF is always in sync with your schedule.
No app store needed. Install directly into Outlook in under a minute.
