Outlook mobile supports Teams Meetings

 

 

	Major update: General Availability rollout started
	Applied to: All customers

 

As announced at Microsoft Ignite, we will be rolling out native support for creating and joining Microsoft Teams meeting in Outlook for iOS and Android in late March. This enhancement is related to Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 32955 and 32956 The ability to create Teams meetings will be available to all Outlook mobile customers. For customers who have migrated to the updated architecture using the Microsoft sync technology, as communicated in message center post MC165218, we’re also making it easier and faster to join a Teams meeting by introducing a new Join button in calendar events. This does not impact Office 365 subscriptions within GCC. [How does this impact me?] If your organization has enabled Teams only, then your users will start to see the option to add Teams when creating or editing calendar events in Outlook mobile. If your organization is enabled for both Skype for Business and Teams, the option to create Teams meetings will replace the option to create Skype meetings for your users in Outlook mobile. If some of the people in your organization still need to create Skype meetings, they can continue to do so from Outlook for Windows, Outlook for Mac and Outlook on the web. Customers who are not using the Outlook mobile sync technology yet will continue to be able to join Teams meeting using the weblink in the meeting description. If users in your organization receive invitations to Skype meetings, there is no change to the current experience, they will continue to see the Join button in those calendar events. [What should I do to prepare for this change?] There is nothing you need to do to prepare for this change if your organization has already enabled Teams for your users. If you do NOT want Teams as an option when creating meetings in Outlook mobile, even if select users are enabled for Teams, then you must disable Teams for the entire organization. Please see Additional Information for details on managing user access.
