Customize built-in Website App in teams
Hi,
For a project I'm working on, what would be the best option to customize the existing Website tab app, provided in Teams?
Specifically, I would like to change its name, icon, and maybe some text inside it.
This is the application in question:
Thanks a lot for your answers,
Alex,

Hi Thirdmonkey,
Unfortunately, there is no option to customize the built-in Website app in Teams using the Teams admin center. The only way to customize this app is to create a Teams app manifest file and upload it to the Teams admin center.
If you are not familiar with creating a Teams app manifest file, I recommend that you follow the instructions provided in the Microsoft Teams documentation: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoftteams/platform/resources/schema/manifest-schema.
Once you have created a Teams app manifest file, you can upload it to the Teams admin center by following these steps:
- Sign in to the Teams admin center.
- Click on Apps > Manage apps.
- Click on the Upload a custom app button.
- Select the Teams app manifest file that you created and click on the Open button.
- Click on the Next button.
- Review the app information and then click on the Finish button.
Once you have uploaded your Teams app manifest file, your app will be available to your users in the Teams app store.

Thirdmonkey -For the website Tab, you can change the site name and the content but not able to change the logo as it is built in tab from teams.
You can create your own Tab Application then you can change its name, icon, and text inside it.

Also here is some sample to create the Tab Application you can refer this as well-
