Derek,  I hope Microsoft does come up with a Teams App for the Surface Hub especially now that they are going to replace SfB with Teams otherwise, the Hub will become worthless.  Microsoft, if you are listening, please release a Teams App for the Surface Hub soon!!!!!

    Hi Jeffrey, 

    please keep in mind that we are not replacing, discontinuing, or stopping support for Skype any time soon. We have announced that most of the innovation will come via Teams. Surface Hub today is able to adapt to customers' needs via the native Skype app, or the Teams app via the Edge browser.

     

    Thank you, 

    Nydia

        Hi Jeffrey, 

        it is not recent. Teams has been available in Hub via the Edge browser for as long as I can remember, Teams was simply not as popular back then.
