Oh I see. Does Edge add Teams to the list of “installed apps” in the menu? It should be in the place where you clicked the “install as app” option.
If it’s there you can also open manage apps or what it’s called in English and try to create new shortcuts from there.
Yeah, not listed.

oh well. I give up. I’ll just use it on my M1 iPad Pro. Works well there.
 
Each Sub-brand was legally a separate company. I'm not sure why you would need to have a full account in each company unless you are administrating those companies IT. In ANY business that I have worked if you were a contractor or consultant, unless you are working Full-Time for us you would have a Guest account associated with your personal/professional email, which you'd see as a dropdown switchable toggle on the top right of your Teams.
Maybe you have one account for your primary employer and one account for a non-profit you do work for or maybe you are a part time student and have a Teams account with your college.

there are tons of reasons why you have to use multiple accounts. That's why you can log into multiple accounts on iOS (and Android? Don't know).
It's a baffling decision made by MS not to include this feature from the very start. I mean, they build a Slack competitor in the end, and they supported multiple accounts forever I think?

This is one of the most requested things and Microsoft has still to deliver. It's not as simple as it sounds though and Microsoft would have to make significant changes in the whole single sign on infrastructure in order to make Teams work with multiple accounts from different tenants.

As far as the performance of Teams concerns, it's just awful but much better on M1 Macs than anywhere else. On my Dell Windows Laptop the fans never stop working and performance is just bad. On my Macs the app works and behaves much better than on Windows, but still sucks big time.

Oh I totally see how they managed to maneuver themselves into a dead end with Teams. But we are talking about Microsoft here, not a startup of 5 people :)

As I said: I think it should have been there day 1, it's such an essential feature these days.

Teams runs fine for me on my M1 Max, no different then on my intel 5K iMac. What I do find baffling is in Windows 11, the integrated Teams app only runs on personal accounts, not business accounts. So I have to download a separate Teams installer to run Teams in Windows 11 that is made for "business". Not sure who thinks all this up at Microsoft but it is a real head scratcher. They have done this for years with Windows itself, so many variations and versions of the OS. Don't see any different between personal Teams and business Teams.

Microsoft is closer to a corporate beauacracy than anything else, partly due to trying to follow a bottom up management style. This means more difficult alignment across teams, especially where dependencies are concerned. Microsoft has resources, yes, but getting a bottom up organization to apply those resources to a single direction is hard.

Yeah, I understand that. It's still really weird that instead of fixing the version they have, they build another one I can't use for my business account and embed it natively into Windows 11.

That's some confusing nonsense to me. That's all. And I don't understand how something like this happens. Do they think that's a good user experience? Something we actually want to get?

I'd bet there's folks on Teams asking the same question.

I half wonder if the one embedded in Windows is maybe based on Skype? I haven't used Win 11, so I honestly don't know.

Can’t tell you either. I tried to login to my work account and then removed it from my taskbar. Who in the world uses Teams for private communication? Why would anyone do that? Is it supposed to be a competitor to iMessage, Signal etc?

I do notice significant visual lag running Teams under M1 Max 24GPU on Monterey (12.3.1) vs High Sierra (10.13.6) on an Intel i9-9900K + GTX 1080 ... I don't know if it's just the x86->ARM translation and/or something not optimized within the renderer for the GPU, but for me, switching chats and/or spaces (calendar, files, etc.) is way slower than in the Intel machine, also when loading/switching from another app feels way sluggish, but maybe this is just me. Rest of the application works fine, but moving around it, not that much.

What audio driver is it installing?
This, I reckon there must be some API that's required in x86 Core Audio that's not ported to M1 yet

Silicon version is getting closer.
Indeed, while Macrumors was busy posting stories about the Twitter acquisition and Nanoleaf (seriously, they should focus on Apple and what they do better - I don't see how they are adding to the already widespread reporting of Twitter/Musk), they haven't even yet picked up on this. That said, a couple of questions:

- Do I need to delete the current version of Teams before installling this?
- If I'm not on the beta channel, will this version update as new version of the beta are released or will I have to manually download each updated version?

For the first answer. You can just install the new one. It'll replace it AFAIK.

For the second one. I'm trying to find out too. If it's that much faster and uses much less ram. I will consider using it heavily
 
Honest question for anyone who wants to answer: How does macOS on an M1 machine deal with a driver situation like this? Does Rosetta 2 handle it somehow?
It looks like it.... but I am not sure. My partner had installed Logitech webcam software and it had an Intel driver too (I think somehow it overwrites the ARM ones)
 
It's about time!!!
Installed - so far so good.
I installed it as well. Video image quality is...not great...

On some calls, I see myself fine but my team members see me in black and white. I also notice fringing and slight image overlap in their video quality, sort of like an old CRT tv that is no longer showing things in focus. Anybody else seeing this?

I should mention this happens on both my M1 Air camera and my shiny new built-in Studio Display camera.
