Is there a 'good' reason to make us use the app bar? We already have an app bar of sorts in our tenant as a result of an accelerator or overlay (whatever you choose to call a piece of software that expands on the existing SharePoint Online offering) and it is much more flexible and has a lot more functionality right now than this. I don't want to have one app bar fighting another app bar later this year because someone at MS decided we 'must' have this new, limited functionality app bar.
Please allow us to disable this one until we're ready to use it, don't dictate that we use new features when it compromises a service offering that already exists in our own tenants.
Mark, I feel that pushing customers to use such a significant UX change is a bit rough. Can the decision to force this change on us please be reviewed?
- Agree - this needs to be done the way a competent company would do it ie an OPT IN feature.
