How to have the Teams client update itself on share devices
I agree that's what the documentation says, however it's not true. There is no 28 day grace period, if you think about it doesn't really make sense "the clients too old to work with the service, but will be fine for 28 days". If you install a device wide installer then first login to that device more than 3 months later you'll see the blocking page (now). This didn't used to be an issue, as they didn't actually enforce the blocking, however since April 1st they have been, which is why we are starting to see issues.
Microsoft support will direct people here, they are providing a script that will update a machine wide installer, and optionally, flag users profiles to reinstall the package. There's also some useful background on the mechanisms at play.
The desktop app automatically updates (so you don’t have to). If you want, you can still check for available updates by clicking your profile picture at the top of the app and then selecting Check for updates.
The web app is always up to date. It’s just good like that.
Or if you want to automatically update Microsoft Teams app https://www.minitool.com/news/how-to-update-iphone-apps.html.
Note: Linux users aren't able to update manually within Teams at this time.
Hello, he is talking about a shared device and for Teams to update users needs to be signed in, and as it's a shared device hence the suggestion above.
Thank you for your clarification, I had thought it said the client.
