Teams displays INCORRECT status
- Just FYI. Teams just released a real time presence update. It is now much more accurate for internal and external users. It will detect any activity on the computer but it still might not respect presenting on other platforms. That isn’t something all the platforms are going to know what each one is doing. If teams starts utilizing OS focus assist that might tie better to presence. Anyway just wanted to say an update that fixes all that status complaining has just went live in the past week.
Oh WOW I just googled and saw hundreds of posts for this issue where Teams displays INCORRECT status and shows "Away" even while the user is not away... Since more than 3 years this issue has been reported and Microsoft has done NOTHING??? Just shows how dedicated this company is towards its customers and it is surprising that companies still use Teams!!!! If I had the deciding power, I would first ask Microsoft to FIX issues and then market its products. Why come out with products that make life miserable?

- Or not. Here I am in Nov. '21 actively typing messages/communicating with co-workers on Teams (and have been for a while) - and there is a yellow dot next to my pic and the status says Away. How irritating.
- Same bad experience here.
Hi Chris , Is this update also working for the Android-version of Teams ?
Thanks in advance,
Bart BonteChrisWebbTech It will detect any activity on the computer - Really? Sounds like a joke because even today it does not detect presence when in Webex meetings. It does not detect presence when I am presenting timed slides which does not involve use of mouse. Unless the touch pad of mouse activity is detected Teams is NOT capable of real time presence update. I still state, this is a useless software which has made lives miserable.
