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,

    Same issue. Many coworkers and I use this feature daily. Please bring it back!

    I have relied on the NOTIFY option for close to a decade. This feature is INVALUABLE for increased productivity.
    Unfathomable that Microsoft has knowingly eliminated this feature. Please restore it.

    Thanks, I've gone back to the "classic" version and will stay on that as long as possible.

    I noticed when Teams meetings are rescheduled the change doesn't update in invitees calendars while I was on the new version. Known bug?

    Hi,

    I don't get a Settings button when I click on profile picture as described. If I click on the dots to the left of it I get a Settings option and there is a Notifications and activity selection accessible from that, but still nothing about providing access to Notification when someone becomes available. .

    Be aware that this workflow applies to "Old" Teams only. New Teams does not currently support Notification when someone becomes available.

    You can vote for this feature to be added to new teams here.
