Thanks for this Sakshi. It seems the new Planner app will be available in April 24. The banner in Project for the Web (PfW) last month said PfW would be the new Planner (my understanding this will be Planner Premium but I could be wrong). The logical conclusion is that PfW will be Planner in April. However I have some clients who are worried about the implications of this and a couple of global customers have developed major addins due to the lack of functionality in PfW as the MS Project team recommended that clients move away from POL. Do you know where we can get more information on this, as I for one am quite worried how this will work. Many thanks

Hi James!
We plan to start rolling out the new Planner app in Teams to customers in March. We intend for Project for the web to become Planner later in 2024 but we don't have a specific date to announce for this transition yet. While we can't comment on any specific extensibility capabilities - we want to make this transition as smooth as possible when it starts and intend for the new Planner web experience to support the functionality Project for the web supports today.
