This app is really helpful and I love it. But for some reason no matter what image I use I can't change my profile picture. I have even tried doing another way which was updating the profile picture on office 365 since teams and office 365 are connected and nothing has worked. I try to do this at least once a weak but nothing happens. Even when I press that check for updates button . I still doesn't register anything. Also when you update the profile picture though office 365 all the office 365 apps related to it are supposed to update their profile picture and none have updated. When i go into the edit profile picture settings in office 365 it shows that I have saved and I has updated the photo. I have had a look on the internet and I have found that a lot of people are having exactly the same issue. So I would nice if you could try and fix the bug. Because that would be a really good feature to have when you have multiple people in a meeting and you will be able to straight away tell who it is. Apart from that the app is perfect. That is why I am giving it 4 out of 5 stars.
Teams is really super, but it desperately needs to be a multiple document interface style application where you can have multiple things open at the same time. If you’re having a meeting and reviewing a task list, navigating to a document that you want to discuss, you have to navigate back to where you were and that’s all too clumsy. If you had the ability to minimise what you’re looking at, follow a link, bring up a calendar, etc. and just tab between the open items within the app, it would become super useful.Otherwise, I say the concept is great and it occupies a fantastic place between an inbox, calendar, shared folders, workflow manager and IM. It is everything that an actual team needs.One last thing… please make it possible to change the privacy settings on a team channel from team-wide to private or back again, or to have it team-wide plus guests or team-wide minus exceptions.
I support teams in a SME environment. It’s a great app & this review is not so much about Teams itself but M365. There is widespread confusion in our organisation about what Teams is. The fact that you can use Teams as a way to navigate to files stored in SharePoint & then open those files inside in Teams makes people think the files are in Teams when they aren’t. A lot of people don’t understand that when using Teams to find files that those files should then be opened in SharePoint & not in Teams because if they are looking at a document in Teams, that document hogs the App & if they need to join a team meeting in Teams they then need to abandon the opened document. There is also confusion about the OneDrive app, which keeps your local OneDrive & Synched SharePoint folders synched with their cloud counterparts and OneDrive Personal File Storage. After almost 3 years of working with OneDrive, SharePoint & Teams some people still don’t get it.
To start with, teams is an amazing app and very convenient for work and schooling. However, in the screenshots used to show off the app in the App Store we can clearly see a chat button and working chat feature. However, once the app is downloaded this feature is nowhere to be seen, and I even had the feature for about a week when it was first implemented before it randomly disappeared with no warnings or updates. This feature was one of the most useful features and I see absolutely no reason for it not to be there. Until the chat option is re-added, there is blatant false advertising for this app using a feature that is no longer included.
I work across multiple organisations as a consultant and Teams has become an absolute pain. It has great potential and a couple of great features but I find that if I forget to sign out of one client’s site that I can’t then access another client’s site… but then other times I can. Usually I’ve got to hunt around to find which site I’m signed in to (which I can’t see where it displays that), sign out, return to the next site and go through all of the security and MFA features again. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t. About 50% of the time I have to send the files to the client via email or request the same back via email so it slows work down. Quite often I’m stuck on ‘connecting’ when signing in to meetings on an iphone or ipad and there’s no way to reverse back out - you’re stuck in perpetuity in this no man’s land until you delete and reinstall the app. … and the web app doesn’t work with Safari browsers!
I use this app for school and ever since I’ve used it it has been draining my iPad battery I used to only put my iPad on the charger every night or maybe once during the day but with using Microsoft teams I have to put my iPad on the charger after every class has finished, which this is not just only ruining my iPad battery life but also making my iPad extremely hot that I can’t even touch it properly, and not to mention since I’ve been using this app my iPad now goes off between 50% to 30% which it should be going off at 5% or 10% so this app ruins my iPad battery to the point where I have to buy I new iPad I’m going to be extremely angry!So now I’m having problems with this app logging me in and out of calls when I’m in them so I’m missing out on important information for school, and not to mention with my battery draining really fast with this app it is also making my iPad really laggy so if you don’t fix this ASAP and this RUINS MY IPAD you will BE BUYING ME A NEW IPAD - thanks
