What you need to know
The day is almost here when the Microsoft Store will have Microsoft Teams stocked on its digital shelves. As spotted on theMicrosoft 365 roadmap, it could be just a matter of weeks before Teams officially hits the storefront.
According to the roadmap, where all good Microsoft product and service updates are found, general availability for the introduction of Teams to the MS Store is slated for May 2022. Do note that roadmap dates are estimates, not guarantees, so until you see the app firsthand on the storefront, nothing is set in stone.
Here’s the description Microsoft has for the change: “Microsoft Teams app for work, school and life will soon be available to download from Microsoft store. This app will support work, school and consumer accounts on Windows 10 and Work or school accounts on Windows 11.”
Windows 10 gets support for all three facets of Teams via this app, andWindows 11gets support for two sinceTeams personal integrationis already a core part of the newer OS' experience.
With Teams, the Microsoft Store will grow that much stronger. It’s alreadyassimilated other storefrontsandmajor browsers, so the logical conclusion was for Microsoft to bring its own communications platform under the umbrella as well.
Microsoft Teams has a versatile toolset equipped to help you with your communications needs whether you’re using it for personal or work purposes. Plus, it’s friendly with Redmond’s host of useful productivity apps.
