About this app

Whether you’re connecting with your community for an upcoming activity or working with teammates on a project, Microsoft Teams helps bring people together so that they can get things done. It’s the only app that has communities, events, chats, channels, meetings, storage, tasks, and calendars in one place—so you can easily connect and manage access to information. Get your community, family, friends, or work mates together to accomplish tasks, share ideas, and make plans. Join audio and video calls in a secure setting, collaborate in documents, and store files and photos with built-in cloud storage. You can do it all in Microsoft Teams.

Easily connect with anyone:
• Skype is now part of Teams. Continue where you left off with your chats, calls and contacts in Microsoft Teams Free.
• Meet securely with communities, teammates, family, or friends.
• Set up a meeting within seconds and invite anyone by sharing a link or calendar invite.

• Work closely and collaborate by keeping conversations organized by specific topics and projects with teams and channels.

Accomplish plans and projects together:

• Manage access to information and ensure the right people have access to the right info, even when people join and leave projects.

Ratings and reviews

I previously would have rated this at four stars, but the most recent update is making it intolerable. Removing the pinned chats from the top and putting them in a section called favorites is useless. I used to be able to swipe and find the person I wanted to talk to but now there's another drop down menu. Useless. And requiring to click "See More" is ridiculous. If I want to see more, I'll continue to swipe. Change it back! The app is now intolerable.

When the heck did Microsoft stop testing applications? A functional application is probably more important than pretty colors and visual effects. Make it work before you bedazzle a poorly built application. New: Notification settings no longer matter. I get notifications hours later on multiple devices, and I ONLY receive them when active on other devices

MS keeps adding things that are unneeded and not customizable - like the "discovery" button. I've also noticed using more than one Teams account is not a great experience. You can have a personal Teams account and a Business and the notifications are terrible to deal with. *Update they made it so you can customize a little more on the desktop (like getting rid of 'discovery') so hopefully this will come to the app.
