MC427759: Microsoft Teams Platform Apps in Group VOIP Calls

Since launching apps in scheduled meetings, Microsoft Teams app developers have wanted to build similar experiences for Teams calls that enhance user productivity. Examples of collaborating in an ad-hoc group call include, collecting and acting on information, discussing and ideating, organizing and tracking, making decisions, and more.

If you already have a meetings app in Teams, we will be rolling out a new feature that will enable it to automatically start working in Teams Group VoIP calls. Alternatively, you can easily start building an app for Teams meetings and calls. We apologize for the delay of this notice and any inconveniences this may cause.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 96189.

All the familiar functionalities of meeting apps – tabs, bots, in-meeting dialogue, and meeting stage – will be supported in Teams VOIP Calls. Users of your apps will enjoy the same familiar app experience as seen in Teams Meetings, in their Teams VOIP Calls.
