Users report its very difficult for their peers to find a team that they have created. This hinders their ability to increase team membership.

Other users report its frustrating that they can't just search ALL the teams at their organization -- that only a small fraction are surfaced to them in their "Suggested" view.

The capability to view Public Teams when you click on "Create Team" is great.

HOWEVER... it would be a better user experience if there was a prominent button or link called "Search for Teams".

Teams needs this discovery capability to avoid the duplication of Team areas for large organisations.

Further to this it would be advantageous to list not only public Teams but also private Teams.

We have been experiencing a bit of a problem since last week and honestly at this point I am not really sure whether it has to do with some of the new teams policy features in teams or it is actually a tech. problem.

Basically as of last week when a user creates a meeting (with dialins) in the Teams addon in Outlook and he/she tries to join the meeting as the meeting host via phone the other invitees are just stuck in the lobby forever, as if the host never joined.

On the other hand, when the host joins with the Teams Client for Windows he/she can admit the users from lobby to the call (as expected).

The thing is that we have tested the same with skype for business outlook addin and it works as expected: meeting participants join -> stay in lobby until the host joins -> host joins via phone -> everyone is admitted.

i contacted Microsoft Support and they said that the only way to admit users in the lobby was using the teams app. This is crazy in all other phone conferencing systems when the host joins with their pin it admits everyone into the meeting. They said that the only way do get around this was to let anonymous users start the meeting and to automatically admit every one.

Can i request that when using audio conferencing that you do not need the Teams app to allow users in and that simply typing the host pin in should be enough.

The recent MSI installer isn't really what people are asking for. It doesn't actually install to program files. It just puts an installer in program files which then installs to the users app data. This doesn't work for me at all.

In a non-persistent VDI environment the application has to install on every login (unless I roam appdata/local which I don't want to do). This isn't the end of the world as it's fairly quick but the problem comes when you also use Yammer. Yammer has the same weird install method and when both teams and yammer try to install they cause a process conflict so only one of them actually installs.

Can we have some proper deployment methods like the rest of Office please? Or at the very least a way of deploying Teams and Yammer together?

See thread for issues related to dark theme. Here are some that are noted:

1. In dark theme, the warning messages are quite unreadable in the private messaging window

2. When an email is sent in from Outlook on the Web when I’m using the dark theme, the text in the email is very dark as per the original email. When viewing this email with Teams using the default (light) theme, it looks great.

3. In Teams chat, no way to turn text back to WHITE, when using the dark theme.

4. Using the dark theme, I have to hunt around a bit to find chats with new messages. Since the only notification that a chat with a specific person has new messages is that the text is bolded, it’s easy to miss. Would be nice if new chats bubbled up to an “active chats” group or something like that. Or maybe a red notification as to how many chats I haven’t read, similar to the one on the “Chat” tab, but specific to a chat.

5. When I am using the dark theme, when highlighted messages are posted, they are extremely difficult to read. You should automatically change the color of the highlighter from yellow to another color that makes it easier to read for people using the dark theme.

6. Code blocks are almost unreadable when using the dark theme, the text is white on a bright-grey background.

7. When using an alternate theme like dark theme, copying messages out of Teams brings its background with it, meaning if you paste it somewhere else it has that dark gray background.
When copying something into teams, it preserves its original font color on top of the dark background, causing problems with visibility. If you are going to allow palette swapping themes, please add appropriate measures for text copied out of or into the app.

8. Currently font color which is grey is too light for contrast and difficult to read. Would be good if it is a dark grey or black.
