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,

    Glad to have this back and it's working well.

    However, I got an annoying limitation: when the notification is set and the person is not appearing in the chat (left) section anymore, it's not possible to turn off notification for this person.

    I would therefore suggest to add Notify when available option also under the ... menu on the top right when someone is selected.

    As a workaround: Pin the user to get it into the Pinned section on the left, then you can right click on it access the menu item.

    Guess we needed a "Notify when available" for the "Notify when available" feature ;)

    I'm getting the opposite. The option is back, but when I select "notify when available" nothing happens when the status turns green.
