Windows 10: Outlook (365) on Android - reviews please

I was considering to install Outlook for Android on my smartphone, but before doing so I checked out reviews.
It all looked promising so I went over the Google Play Store using my smartphone.

Installed . . . (?)
Contains adds ? (Also for 365 subscriptions?)

Scrolled down and hit on quite a number of 1* reviews.
The app has a 4.7 ranking, probably earned in the past, considering the numerous 1-2 start reviews.

I hesitate now.
How are the user experiences here?

Outlook Mail for Android

After more fiddling I decided to use Gmail since I can control the push frequency. I'm using Outlook for contacts and calendar which works provided you designate the Outlook account for contacts and enable synchronisation for contacts.

1. Android GMail app for IMAP accounts, Gmail & Outlook email. Installed Outlook app but only the Microsoft email account is enabled.
2. Built in Contacts app used linked to Outlook account as default
3. Android Outlook app used for Calendar and built in Calendar app disabled.

 

Outlook Mail for Android

After an afternoon of fiddling with my Moto phone, I configured the phone as follows since I mainly use Outlook for contacts and appointments.

1. Android Outlook app for IMAP accounts, Gmail & Outlook email. Built in GMail app disabled.
2. Built in Contacts app used linked to Outlook account as default (I've no idea why it wouldn't synch to Gmail)
3. Android Outlook app used for Calendar and built in Calendar app disabled.

All now works fine. I can't find a way of controlling push notification for the Outlook app but at least it all works and synchs.
