Module extension add-ins appear in the Outlook navigation bar, right alongside mail, tasks, and calendars. A module extension isn't limited to using mail and appointment information. You can create applications that run inside Outlook to make it easy for your users to access business information and productivity tools without ever leaving Outlook.

> Instead of module extensions, create [personal tab apps that open in Outlook](/microsoftteams/platform/m365-apps/extend-m365-teams-personal-tab) to provide a more modern and convenient solution. With personal tab apps, your users will have access to business critical data and productivity tools not just in Outlook, but across Microsoft 365 applications, including Microsoft Teams, and various platforms.

> Module extensions are only supported in classic Outlook on Windows. To provide a more modern solution that's available on various platforms, create [personal tab apps that open in Outlook](/microsoftteams/platform/m365-apps/extend-m365-teams-personal-tab) instead. With personal tab apps, your users will have access to business critical data and productivity tools not just in Outlook, but across Microsoft 365 applications, including Microsoft Teams, and various platforms.
