    Hi everyone, we're pleased to announce Microsoft Teams for Apple Silicon, which on the M1/M2 ARM builds, will have significantly faster performance than what's seen during the Rosetta emulation today! Here's our official roadmap ID for this release; Microsoft 365 Roadmap | Microsoft 365. More on this can be found here; Announcing Microsoft Teams optimized for Apple silicon - Microsoft Tech Community. 

    Users should see a significant performance boost with this release. And for the Intel Macs out there, we're still thinking about you! We have some large performance fixes coming that will help improve overall performance for the Intel version as well. 

    Thanks,
    Sam Cosby, Teams Engineering PM

I am using a Macbook air M1 2020 8GB.
In the last weeks it slowed dramatically, before it was the fastest computer I ever had.
I could not work with it any longer because of really cumbersome delays and freezing.

I stopped using the desktop version of Teams and use the teams via web.
Now I am back to old performance!

Why is Teams slowing down a M1 mac so much that I cannot work anymore?

coffeeTheCupI am experiencing the same. MS Teams is extremely slow when in a video call.

I have noticed this during the last week, before that it was working properly.

I am in version "1.5.00.4683. It was last updated on 2/20/22."

 

It is almost unusable.
