How can we make Microsoft Teams better?

The Outlook "New Teams Meeting" button should respect the "End appointments and meetings early" setting

"End appointments and meetings early" is a new but very useful setting that lightly enforces good meeting discipline. It works for the regular "New Appointment" and "New Meeting" buttons, but not for the "New Teams Meeting" button. This should be fixed so all create calendar buttons exhibit the same useful behaviour.

    The sooner this functionality could be enabled, the better. What is the status of this request? Is it on anyone's to-do list? Thanks

    It is very frustrating if a meeting needs to be "altered" due to changing schedules. It happens a lot, especially when dealing with doctors and their unpredictable schedules. Outlook is easy peasy in changing, but Teams is horrible.

    We're using end early setting in Outlook and users are confused when they set up a meeting using Teams. Would love Outlook and Teams be joined up on that setting.

    Indeed, I miss the feature in Teams. Since it's not there I have to continue using Outlook to arrange meetings because it's so annoying to change manually default meeting durations. Microsoft, you should work on this on high priority.

    Yes make it a mandatory function!! It should be the new 'normal' as we have more and more back-to-back session than ever and it would be useful to re-generate between these sort of sessions.

    And when creating a meeting in the Teams app, this setting should be respected as well.

    Please add an in-meeting notification 5 minutes before the end of the meeting, then a "meeting is over" message. A banner, or countdown popup could do it.

    This raises visibility and shares responsibility to *all* attendees to end meeting on time.

    This would be greatly useful as a configuration that can be enabled tenant-wide to encourage good meeting ettiquette.

    Making all calendar buttons exhibit the same behaviour would be extremely useful and help people to work in a more beneficial way

    This will be helpful in the current climate as we are using Teams and for meetings to respect ending a meeting early would help.
