Within the last month or so we go the pop up to try the "new" Teams... The new APP is having so many issues!! We use it for conference calls, and myself and others are having issues where the notifications are not showing, or when invited to a meeting it won't let you "join". I keep having audio (microphone & speaker) issues which I NEVER had previously. I really DO NOT like it. I've switched back to the older version for now. I simply refuse to keep dealing with all these NEW issues with the NEW version! :( It's simply horrible!

    I keep being prompted to switch to the new teams. The problem is it never works properly. Now it appears that the old teams is now in some sort of Beta version and is starting to lose proper functionality. However, if the new team doesn't work, why would you try to force us to use it.

    Even now when I try to start the new teams it says "WE'VE RUN INTO AN ISSUE" and ask me to restart. BUT IT DOESNT WORK!!!!!!!!! Please just go back to the old teams.

    Please reduce the size of the red dot when in Busy mode in the system tray or provide a way for the user to set a custom size.

    Does anyone else have issues with the chat history as well with this new version of teams?

    I get this message and refresh however nothing happens. :(

    I have up until now kept reverting to the old version whenever Microsoft was trying to force me to change as its more stable.

    Unfortunately it looks like in the next couple of weeks we wont have that choice.....

    And worst you can't move the gallery when there is a screen sharing by another participant.

    When using a 21:9 screen, this option is necessary as having the gallery at the top drastically reduces the size of the shared screen and forces you to enable Focus on the content (preventing viewing on webcams).

    I encountered the same problem on both the web app and the desktop app and also on Windows and MacOS. Clearing the cache has no effect.
