Currently, students can only see the status of their assignments in the grades tab. If they need to resubmit or check for feedback they have to go back to the assignments tab and scroll through the list of assigned or completed assignments to access a particular assignment. This process would be easier if their was a link to each assignment in the grades tab that allows them to open the assignment from there

Navigating between chat and teams folders is cumbersome. There should be a way to pop out chats or do an Alt tab to jump between. For eg. If someone sends me a team folder link in team chat, i should be able to view the folder and chat in 2 separate windows

If you click on a teams, you should land directly on the first channel.
There should be a breadcrumb navigation for the channels in the teams, which can be optionally displayed between teams name and tabs.

Do not require that contacts and groups be sorted alphabetically.

Currently if i share the screen and at that time only one window i can share, if i want to show another window can i need to stop sharing and reshare again. It should be multi window sharing. And same thought should be applicable to request control also.

Register a global hotkey for windows (e.g. Win + T) to open up a new chat window, without having the application active.

s4b has such a global hotkeys

and ability to Customize the hotkeys

Feature idea :
The new popout windows for chat to be able to tab together to provide easier window management if you have alot of chats to manage.

Along with this you could include a feature to show favorite chats or an option to favorite them we have a pin feature but what about a separate feature to favorite contacts and chats?

It would be nice to be able to test the Microphone and Speakers, to make sure everything is working.

Please enable the ability to post the most recent conversation at the top of the feed.

Rotating screen/landscape. Standard feature in mobile apps.

In other programs such as word, you can have 2 windows open so you can view two documents at once. Feel this would be helpful for Teams as well. Example, have chat open on one window and Teams/channels on the other.

Users need to be able to set a custom notification sound or at the very least have a list of sounds to select from.

Different users have different hearing capabilities. I have several users that are physically incapable of hearing the current sounds.

By forcing every person to use the same sounds for notifications you are preventing people with hearing disabilities from using the full capability of application.

It would be nice to be able to write on pictures or PDFs of assignments turned in by students using a stylus (Apple Pencil). This would be way easier than typing comments to give feedback. I know you can do this in Canvas.

I would really like a "multi-tab" feature to quickly switch between files or refer to two files on different tabs at once.

When I edit an Excel file inside Teams app, and then switch windows, when I come back the focus is lost in the Excel sheet - very annoying for any cut-and-paste operations to require an additional click every time. The focus in the Teams app should be persistent.

Constantly being shown the 'Are you still there?' pop up which makes you refresh the page... You should show the pop up after 30 minutes/1 hour of inactivity, not less than a minute!

Very annoying, please update!

It would be nice if the "followed channel" notification was a different color than the "direct mention" indicator. since I can't tell the difference, i find myself heading over to teams just to see conversations that I'm probably not interested in, which ends up being bad context-switching for me

A couple of backgrounds that I uploaded are sideways and I want to delete them from the selection of backgrounds.
