Microsoft is developing a new People app for Windows 11, which may be called Microsoft 365 Companion. This app will function as a web wrapper around Outlook.com, allowing users to manage contacts more easily. Previously, the People app was a key feature in Windows 10, integrating contacts from various services. However, it was removed in Windows 11, leaving users to access contacts through the Mail and Calendar apps, which have since been updated to Outlook. The new People app will initially be available for Microsoft 365 users and will allow quick access to contacts for emailing and scheduling events. It is currently in preview and has limited features, but aims to improve contact management on Windows 11.
