Outlook 4.0.30 October 2019 update on Android 8.1.0

[Android Central Question]

The Outlook App on my Android phone updated on October 4th 2019. Since then it appears to have two bugs:

When I go to compose a new email the cursor appears in the "To" line for less than a second and then jumps to the body of the email. This is really annoying as I am accustomed to start typing the recipient's address straight away. Now I have to manually postion the cursor back in the address line.

If I go to compose a new email but then back out of it without entering a single character (no address, no subject, no content) a draft copy now gets created. This did not happen previously. Another annoyance.

Please can you correct these issues, particularly the first one, as a matter of urgency.

Thanks.

Have you cleared the cache partition and rebooted yet?

Yes, I've wiped the cache partiton and rebooted. No change. The Outlook app still exhibits these two bugs.

I don't know how to resolve your issue however, when I create a draft, the cursor stays in the "To" line. Perhaps the first problem is fixed.
When I exit out of the draft with nothing in it it still saves a copy. A pop-up message offers the option to discard. It is a little annoying, especially when you have nothing in any of the fields.

Just one thing:

Please can you correct these issues
