Why is the Teams Desktop User Agent for Chrome way behind?
Hi everyone! For our digital workspace solution we want to make sure users have the best possible experience which is why we check to see if they are using an up-to-date version of their browsers...
MGodthelp - We got update from engineering team saying "Picking up Electron/Chromium updates is a non-trivial process. Each update often brings breaking changes that we need to address and requires us to re-test all of our app's functionality. Teams is currently in the process of rolling out a new Teams Desktop Client that is built on top of Electron 16 (Chromium 96)."
Thanks,
Prasad Das

Prasad_Das-MSFT Ok I don't really understand. Isn't this related to developing and presenting your app in Microsoft Teams? Our issue is with the representation of our solution in the in-app browser which uses a significantly older version of the Chrome and Electron user agent.
I can't understand why our tenant admin would have to reach out to Microsoft 365 Product support whilst this isn't an issue with our specific tenant but rather the implementation if the in-app browser within the Teams desktop app. I would classify this as a development related issues as it affect our app presentation.
Isn't there any relation/communication between the team over here and the Microsoft 365 Product support team?
