Google's own apps are adware. Gmail injects ads that look like unread email into your inbox to try to trick you into clicking them.
Outlook too.
The Android app?
Yep, it does the same things, insert ads that looks like unread emal.
Outlook the program does no such thing.
I was gonna say, what even is "adware" in an ecosystem where every app ships annoying or intrusive ads?
Similarly, what is a "trojan" when those ads submit your data, too? None of this is in the interest of the user...
