It's quite amazing that Teams indicates spelling errors and yet it doesn't have the ability to add items to the dictionary. This is the sort of thing I'd expect in an alpha version, not in a release!
Yeah, I've seen this for a while now.
Lots of comments requesting a fix.
Been seeing Microsoft promote Teams a lot lately, but apparently this isn't a curbside appeal feature.
It's more of a foundation crack you find, after you've bought as is.
Would have thought they could have spared a couple of their more than 150k employees to fix it, before marketing it.
Even just being able to read the 365 dictionary, whether or not words had to be added elsewhere, would have been a nice crutch for now.
micolito Indeed! But it's also buggy. When I enter the word "I've", it flags it as a spelling error. Pretty common English contraction. And for those of us with OCD tendencies (myself that is), it's pretty annoying when you see correctly-spelled words flagged as spelling errors. Perhaps non-EN-US language users are not officially supported?
I don't know the internal history of the product, but officially it's the continuation of the evolution of Skype for Business. Microsoft has been pretty non-homogeneous in its approach to instant messaging since it acquired Skype, and Teams as a Microsoft 365 app is still evidence of this. Maybe it will be a much more integrated solution by the time version 2 is released. Or at least one can hope...
