Need read receipts

Mobile working, Asynchronous working of teams is a common phenomena. Read receipts let us know if the message has been seen, so we know it can be acted on. Critical when large numbers of the team are mainly mobile workers.

    It has almost been a year... and after all that time I can now see that the ticket ID MC180651 has been removed. Why is that the case? Please tell me it isn't because you're no longer working on it.

    「Working on It」status has been not changed alomost year. Do you really it is　「Working on It」?
    Many enterprise cusrtomer in Japan request to release this because LINE is major SNS in Japan and be familar [Read]. Teams usage is the important bussiness KPI of FY20 Microsoft. If MS push me to grow teams usage, please relase it immediately. Thx.

    Agree with others, not a fan of this one. I definitely want to be able to control read receipts and my preference is to have it turned off by default. It's a personal dilema for me as to whether or not I want to share the fact I read a message or not ... depending on who sent it over.

    Is Microsoft still recommending this not be used on Teams of more than 20 users?

    I have someone wanting this turned on for a Team with 186 members.

    Sounds a bit big brother. I'd be fine with it as long as there's a setting I can configure as a user to not emit read receipts

    It is working in Privat-Chats but we need it in Group-Chats to see if everybody got&saw the Infos there.

    How is this feature still not implemented? The last update was November 1st, 2018, with the initial request being put in November 2016!

    That's so long ago for what you would think is a very simple feature.

    The official Microsoft Teams twitter also tweeted saying read receipts are being "added this month" in July of 2019, yet it's now mid-September with the feature still not working.

    There's even a setting in the Teams admin panel that does NOTHING.

    Pretty disappointed.

    really looking forward to this! That way you can rest assured the message was seen and it is not your responsibility anymore to chase the person

    Feature is available in the Admin panel but no functionality still ! no change in desktop or mobile apps.
