Why is my "Notify when available" missing when I click on a user in Teams?

This is what is missing from a user we support.

Hello WilliamHicks6,

The Notify when available feature is not available in the new Teams. Currently, you will need to select a user’s avatar or profile photo anywhere in new Teams to quickly get an overview of their online status, next available calendar slot in Outlook, work hours, local time, or work location either remote or in office.

Thanks,

    I have decided to switch back to classic Teams until:

    1. "Notify when available" feature is available on New Teams.
    2. My company enforces the update.

    Whatever comes first.

    Well, I do vote against a new version when features that I need are removed. I would think that if many people avoid using the new version, maybe the product owner of MS Teams will start thinking about these kind of choices. Normally, removing a feature should go in steps - where you can use the settings to re-enable the removed feature. Which means that you, again, vote for the removal of the feature. Much better approach than posting in the forum, I would think.

    In any case, this has nothing to do with requesting a feature that did not exist in the first place.

    It's great that you are happy to continue with Teams 'classic' version instead of the new one. However, that's not a solution for everyone. My organisation has a group policy which forces the new version and makes it impossible to go back to the old one, even through the browser.

    We're not voting against the new Teams app, we're just using the community forum to request a feature.
