I would rather refresh my news and outlook app when I want to use it, rather than it refreshing automatically. How do I do this?
 
In outlook, tap the "..." at the bottom and then select "settings".

From there, tap on the "sync settings" and change the frequency to whatever you want.

There's also a setting in the MSN News app that let you update data only while on WiFi.
 
Or, if there is a single period that would like your apps to not refresh, you can put your phone into Battery Saver mode, which turns off automatic updates for apps.
