Summary:
Starting in April 2024, Microsoft Teams desktop app on Windows and Mac will allow users to access any type of Teams account (work, school, or personal) and admins can control their users' sign-in capabilities with group policies. Users will be able to add and access their additional accounts in the upper right corner of Teams by selecting their profile picture. Teams personal account users can connect and collaborate with the people and groups in their life through Communities in Teams by adding a personal Microsoft account (MSA). The Teams taskbar might look different for users who have Teams Free (for personal use) on their system, because the updated Teams app will attempt to take the place of their taskbar pin. Admins should review their Teams sign-in restriction policies for their users and devices to prepare for a seamless update to new Teams.
Details:
Updated April 25, 2024: We are addressing the feedback of the users about the account picker presence on pre-join screen in case user has one account and joining a meeting within a tenant. As a result, we will not show account picker in such cases. However this change will take place only during Worldwide release. Targeted release users with one account will see account picker in case they have just one account and joining a meeting within the tenant. Please consider it as a known issue/limitation which will be fixed with general release.
Starting in April 2024 and rolling out gradually, the Microsoft Teams desktop app on Windows and Mac will let you use any type of Teams account (work, school, or personal). As in classic Teams, admins can control their users’ sign-in capabilities with group policies.
Users will be able to add and access their additional accounts in the upper right corner of Teams by selecting their profile picture. Teams personal account users can connect and collaborate with the people and groups in their life through Communities in Teams by adding a personal Microsoft account (MSA). (How to create an MSA).
With this capability, we are also introducing changes to how you join meetings. Teams will allow users to view or change the identity that they want to use for meetings, right on the meeting pre-join screen. These changes follow all meeting privacy and security policies.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 383006.
[When this will happen:]
Targeted Release: We will begin rolling out late April 2024 (previously early April) and expect to complete by early May 2024 (previously mid-April).
Worldwide: We will begin rolling out early May 2024 (previously mid-April), and expect to complete by early July 2024 (previously late June). Users of Teams Free (Teams for personal use) will begin to see this update earlier than Teams (work or school) users.
