Message Center
Summary
Microsoft 365 is moving some suite header actions, including Settings, My Day, and Sync, into the More (...) menu to reduce clutter and improve discoverability. The change, rolling out from September to November 2026, requires no admin action but may need user communication and documentation updates.

What and why
To keep the Microsoft 365 suite header organized and reduce visual clutter, some actions currently displayed directly in the suite header will move to the More (...) menu. This update improves discoverability of additional actions while preserving existing functionality.
The Settings and My Day actions will continue to be available and can be accessed from the More (...) menu. We are also adding the Sync button to that menu. This change does not remove any capabilities. It only changes where certain actions are accessed.
Rollout schedule
- Targeted Release (Worldwide): Began in early September 2026 and expected to complete by mid-September 2026
- General Availability (Worldwide, GCC High, DoD): Beginning in early October 2026 and expected to complete by late October 2026
- General Availability (GCC): Beginning in early October 2026 and expected to complete by early November 2026
