What users will experience after 31st March 2024
Starting in March 2024, any Classic Teams users who haven’t updated to New Teams will begin seeing an informational banner to remind them about the Classic Teams end of support timeline. This banner will appear in the main Teams client window at the top of the page (underneath the main bar).
On 1st July 2024, Classic Teams becomes unsupported. Users still running Classic Teams will experience in-app dialog messages informing them that the client is no longer supported. These dialogs will prompt the user to update.
Microsoft is automatically rolling out the new teams to devices and will start to attempt to uninstall the Classic Teams client 14-days after this deadline.
