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 have the same issue. I cannot use the Microsoft Teams Desktop App for work because it drains my battery by 70% in under an hour on video conf calls. I've resorted to Teams on the web (Chrome) for now which is super sad. I haven't been on video calls but web Teams is open and still draining the battery by 20% in 40 mins, still better than 70% in less than an hour but not an apples to apples comparison. Absolutely horrible. I've done the uninstall and reinstall Teams and it doesn't help.
