Providing Early Feedback - Simplified Teams app bar 557169
How do we provide early feedback to prevent this from happening or requesting the option to disable this feature? If anything, I want Teams to de-simplify. Microsoft keeps going out of their way to hide things that are crititical to productivity. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?filters=&searchterms=557169 I mean - generally - how do we get Microsoft to stop making things worse? It seems like the recommendation is to use the feedback button in the app; but by that time it's too late. Telling the 100+ people who ask me what Microsoft broke this week to use the feedback button is not helping avoid their distaste and distrust of this platform. This is why people are avoiding Teams and prefer text messaging and WhatsApp. We desperately need to increase adoption but Microsoft keeps obscuring features that lead to increased confusion. Where do we make requests to decrease simplicity and increase productivity?
Channel Meeting Chat can only be viewed from the channel
Why can't chats from a meeting channel appear in the chat section of Teams? Our project team have decided against holding meetings in channels due to this reason because it's a hassle to navigate back to the Team. I have the view set up correctly an you cannot see the chat where we would do all other regular meeting chats. Apparently this is by design? Why...?Teams Delivers a Slack Migration Tool
Microsoft announced the availability of a Slack to Teams migration tool in the Microsoft 365 admin center. The new tool exists to assist the 79 million monthly active users of Slack who might want to move to Teams and don’t know how to get there. ISVs have been helping people move off Slack to Teams for years, so other migration options exist. https://office365itpros.com/2026/01/07/slack-to-teams-migration/The Files tab in channels is now "Shared"
I've found this Roadmap article about this feature: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/roadmap?id=470597 The Microsoft 365 Admin Message Center Message ID MC1025217 says "Before rollout, we will update this post with new documentation." But I can't find any documentation and users in my organisation have this new feature. It's not in any of the blog posts here. Any thoughts on where to find useful end user materials?
Chat History Not Visible for New Participant
I conducted a test where a new participant was added to an ongoing chat. The participant is successfully added to the chat but cannot see the chat history. However, the participant remains in the chat after the conversation ends. Is there a central-level setting that prevents the chat from including historical messages and always creates a new chat for added participants?
