Sync iPhone with Outlook
Customers who have multiple phones and devices have been asking, “How to sync Outlook calendar with iPhone?” Until now, we didn’t officially support iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch devices.
Customer feedback and forum users sharing their frustrations with trying to sync Outlook with iPhone through iTunes and iCloud prompted us to add official support for iOS devices. Akruto is the only software to directly sync Outlook Calendar with iPhone without going through iTunes or iCloud and uses the iOS’s own Calendar, Contacts, Reminders and Notes apps.
Because Akruto syncs with the iPhone’s Calendar, Contacts, Reminders and Notes, users can continue using the apps without needing to learn new apps. What’s more is that this integration works with all of the iPhone’s features, such accessing a contact when dialing or sharing a contact through a text message.
“This is a tremendous method for syncing your Outlook and is FAR simpler than even going directly through Outlook!” writes P.B.
Sync Outlook with iPhone software that always works
Before we decided to support iOS devices, we did research to see how synchronization with iPhone and other iOS devices worked. We discovered that most forum discussions ended without a solution. Either users had to find another less convenient option to manage their personal information or they accepted it’d only work some of the time.
These options aren’t acceptable for professionals and Outlook power users who need something they can depend on and always have their data in sync. Akruto is reliable, accurate, seamless and secure. Many customers say the same thing: “It just works!”
When Apple released iOS 9, users couldn’t figure out how to sync Outlook Notes with iPhone because iTunes stopped doing this. A discussion on Apple’s forums about this has a screen shot showing that this feature is gone for good. Akruto works with iOS 9 ensuring all your Outlook Notes transfer between computer and iPhone.
When you sync Outlook with iPhone using AkrutoSync, you’ll get the following benefits:
- Access all of your data because nothing is cut off, including long notes.
- Do nothing else after you install it. Your data syncs automatically. No USB cable needed.
- Sync without iTunes, which often slows computer performance and sync isn’t automatic.
- Enjoy your privacy. Synced data is not shared with the cloud or Akruto.
- Keep using your Calendar, Contacts, Reminders and Notes apps as usual.
Easy to Install Outlook iPhone Sync Software
AkrutoSync all started because George, the founder and CEO of Akruto, couldn’t find a sync software solution that met his requirements. He noticed that other solutions had one thing in common: Installing the sync software was too complicated for the average computer user. So one of his goals for AkrutoSync was to make it super simple to install.
Customer feedback and testimonials confirm that Akruto is easy to install that even computer novices are able to do it. You just install Akruto on a Windows PC and it’ll guide you through the process. “Easy to install and set-up,” says Jason B.
“Thank you so much for writing this program because I could not get iTunes to sync my Windows 8 Calendar items into my iPhone 6,” writes Brian S.
After you install AkrutoSync, relax and let Akruto do the rest. Your data automatically syncs across devices. Here’s a short video tutorial explaining how easy it is to sync Outlook contacts and calendars to iPhone with AkrutoSync:

What you get with Outlook iPhone sync software
Here are some of the customers’ favorite AkrutoSync features.
Use device’s own apps.
Some Outlook sync software programs take up precious space on smartphones by adding its own calendar, contacts, notes and tasks apps to devices. Apple won’t let you delete its native apps, so you’d have two of everything. This clutters your screen. Akruto syncs your data and stays out of your way.
Transfer all events.
Sometimes you need to search for a past event or check your availability months ahead. Unfortunately, some iPhone calendar sync software programs only sync two weeks’ or three months’ worth of events. Akruto syncs all past and future events with no limits. If you add, delete or change an event on one device, all other devices and Windows Outlook will reflect this change.
Sync everything completely including long notes.
Some sync Outlook sync software tend to cut off notes and information. Some don’t sync contacts’ photos. Akruto accurately syncs everything. Give it a try by creating long notes. We’ve tested it by copying all of Shakespeare’s sonnets into a note.
Protect your privacy.
Your privacy is important. Akruto syncs your data over a Wi-Fi network (no data plan) or the Internet (uses data plan) through a secure, encrypted connection. “I could not recommend this more highly for those who need to have an up-to-date calendar and are not happy with putting their personal information in the cloud,” Richard C. writes.
Provide responsive and 24/7 support.
Akruto is the only sync software company to offer 24/7 support. “I’m not a computer guy and their tech support held my hand all the way through,” writes Earle P. We offer email and live chat support. We also follow up with a phone call if you prefer that.
Transfer data two-way.
It doesn’t matter where you update your information. Akruto syncs both ways. Your updated Microsoft Outlook Calendar, Contacts, Tasks and Notes show up in your iPhone’s Calendar, Contacts, Reminders and Notes. And vice versa. If you have an Android, Windows Phone, Windows Surface, iPad, iPad Mini, or another iOS device, those will sync too.

I have two iPhones (4s and 6s ) and want to sync them with Outlook 2013. How do I sync Outlook contacts and calendar appointments with my 6s and only contacts with 4s? Can I do that with Akruto?
If so, will contacts I add on the first iPhone automatically show up on another iPhone?
Hello Jaden!
You can connect unlimited number of devices and set separate sets of data to sync with each iPhone. That means you can have Outlook contacts and calendar synced with 6s while your 4s will only host contacts.
As for the second question, any new contact you will add on your iPhone will be transferred to your second iPhone and Outlook as well.
I need a way to automatically transfer notes from my iPhone to Outlook over the air. It seems like iCloud no longer works with Outlook notes, or its just another annoying bug from Apple or Microsoft.
However, with all this stuff happening with iCloud and Outlook, does your software still sync notes or it’s been affected with this bug as well?
Hello Helen,
It seems like a trend, not a bug. iTunes doesn’t support syncing notes since this spring, so it’s quite possible that syncing notes through iCloud will be discontinued as well.
As for the question, AkrutoSync makes sure any portion of data (including notes) is properly synced between Outlook and connected devices. After the initial setup your iPhone will communicate with Outlook through AkrutoSync on your PC. This will transfer any new notes to Outlook.
