Use the web version of Outlook like a desktop app

You can install the web version of Outlook—either Outlook on the web or Outlook.com—as a progressive web app in the new Microsoft Edge Edge icon and Google Chrome. 

When you install the web version of Outlook as a progressive web app, you can do things like pin and launch the web version of Outlook from your computer's home screen or task bar and access your account while you're offline.
