MicrosoftWindows Snap Layout not supported
Teams doesn't work with Windows Snap layout feature. Hovering over the Maximize icon, teams doesn't provide the standard windows options that other apps provide.
Also it doesn't work with Groups of Windows that are in the Snap layout.

Ketan Ghelani I have found that though Teams does respond to snap layouts, it does not fit within the 1/4 screen division and extends well beyond it.

- Hoping Teams will work with hovering over max icon in a future iteration. I don't know how many times I've tried to snap Teams by moving my cursor over the maximize icon!
Ketan Ghelani Supported by Google Chat though!
natesmeeth Now how is that helpful for Teams users? Sheesh.
- It provides humor to ease the tension caused by the frustration of a Microsoft product not having the native capability to utilize a feature within its own platform. It was my hope, considering this is a social 'community', that my facetiousness would be a method to insert some humanity and help build a stronger connection through a simple text window.
neclamchowderI'm using a preview version of Teams right now that supports snap layouts, so there's a sign a fix may be in an upcoming release.- Thanks neclamchowder. Is the preview version publicly available?
- neclamchowderIt appears this is only internal right now.
Does anyone know why Snap Layouts don't work with Teams?

jpwbikes I've noticed that hovering over the maximize button doesn't invoke the snap layouts window, but the shortcut key (win+z) works.
- Thanks, this is a welcome tip. It also works to select another window/app first to snap and then select the Teams app in the proposed apps for the next snap.
