Open Teams App from Outlook Meeting Invite
We have the same problem. Any News?
When i change the standard Webbrowser to Firefox the meeting link will be open first in the browser and then automatically in the app.
Edge and IE doenst work.
LeSchloegel2 Hi all, the status for this request is "working on it".
"Clicking on the join button in an Outlook reminder takes you to the browser to launch Teams today. The work to bypass the browser and directly launch Teams is being worked on. We’ll update when we have more details."

"We’re pleased to announce that all meeting join entry points have been addressed in Outlook for Windows and Mac.
- For customers keeping current on the monthly release channel, this update has been released.
- Customers keeping current on the semi-annual release channel for Outlook will get this this Summer, with a gradual roll out scheduled to begin in mid-July."- ChristianBergstromJun 02, 2020Silver Contributor
JoshBailey Great! Thanks for the heads up. They really should have merged these two as the above UserVoice has far more votes.
