MS Teams Private Channels - Planner App
Hi edmm94,
this is not an "issue" it is not possible to add apps to a private channel.
This is one of the restrictions we have to deal with up until now. I can not tell you if there is a plan to integrate apps later.

This is absolutely dumb.
Why would MS restrict productivity like that?
Example: organising a conference - theres one team. Within that team are different groups of people working on different parts of the organising - these people need to communicate and share taskts etc, but no EVERYBODY needs to know about all these details. how come MS always manages to screw things up. Just one look at Slack that everybody loves, and they should be able to get it...
helenolen There are of course instances when the information in a channel is secret to others (and it would be good to have a Planner plan as well) but you should probably avoid using private channels just to avoid that other know about it.
When it comes to Slack I believe a Slack channel is actually similar to a Teams team, not a team's channel. But of course there are good things in Slack that is not available in Teams (and vice versa).
Um.. that's exactly why i referenced to slack... at least there people can choose the channels they want to be a part of.
less noise.
helenolen Then you should create a public team (instead of a private) that anyone can be part of and which is similar to a public Slack channel.
