Outlook Web App version You can switch between the standard and the light version of Outlook Web App. If you have a low-bandwidth connection, the light version may be a better choice than the standard version of Outlook Web App. Also, the light version of Outlook Web App works better with assistive technologies such as screen readers. The light version also works with browsers that don’t support the standard version of Outlook Web App.
