Anyone else found searching for a location in outlook calendar suddenly broken? This used to work well, but in the last week has broken on every device, every outlook.com email account, every app (outlook.com in the browser, outlook for android, classic outlook (x64), and the new outlook for windows). I'm not sure if it began after a recent update to outlook for android, or the an MS365 update - either way it's broken on everything. The only app it looks like it's trying on is classic outlook, where it will produce a drop down window that stays stuck on searching forever, but never coming up with a result (including locations that have been used previously).

I've posted in the feedback hub, as the solutions google provided haven't helped, including: clearing the cache on android, repairing & reinstalling MS365 & the android app, unchecking then rechecking connected experiences in privacy settings, & ensuring all relevant location permissions are enabled in the apps, settings & in the browser. There are a few recent reports of the same, but not that many given it's affecting every outlook.com email address under our roof (that's 6 in total), every browser, every device & every outlook app! Hence enquiring on here. Oh & in case this is a network isssue I've also tried using someone else's ISP as well as 2 different cellular providers.

Running a mix of Win 11 Home & Pro, & android One UI 7.0.
