I appear to be the only one on our team (suddenly and inexplicably) missing the Gif button on my Teams desktop App/browser. It appears the same when I log on via edge. Where has my GIF button gone and how do I get it back?

    I reached out to the IT department and they reinstalled the app. :)

    Mine is still missing, can't find it anywhere and have tried following some of the suggestions previously. Not sure if it's linked or a totally different issue, but at the top of my chat screen where I previously had the option to Teams Video call or just phone call - now I only have the icon to phone call. If I want to Video call I have to click the down arrow "More meet now options" to select the video call. In my mind, video calls was the whole point of Teams?!

    Anyway - very sad about Gifs, my team live by them and now I can't join in unless I'm working from home :(

    I have no idea how since I didn't reboot/restart, but I am working from home today as opposed to working in the office yesterday (if that plays a factor - I'm on a VPN at home so shouldn't really be different).

    Yesterday, I had no lower row with the Gif button, just the three icons at the right of the text entry.
    Today, I use teams and my GIF button is back - the three icons no longer exist, I have the whole panel below the text entry.

    I'm not sure how since I didn't reboot or close/reopen Teams, but it's fixed.
    Would be nice if Microsoft acknowledged it if they did fix it.

    But I'm also going to see if they disappear when I go back into the office on Tuesday. I'm not 100% convinced this is "fixed". It would help if Microsoft commented.

    Mine are back as well! They must have caught wind @ Microsoft, or they were affected directly themselves and put it at the top of the list. 😂
