Microsoft Teams — The worst app ever — For some reason this silly app never works for me. For my work and kid’s school they send links and usernames and passwords, but with any of that this wouldn’t work.. they really need to make this more flexible to users.
Microsoft Teams — App sucks. Use something more efficient Couldn’t even get my stupid app downloaded in time for a meeting + onto of that had to go through the dumbest verification for it to not even let me type of a password. TRASH
Microsoft Teams — Terrible — Utter rubbish. Absolutely the worst video conferencing app ever. Can’t create an account and I can’t login using my phone. Utterly unacceptable. If I could give it negative stars I would.
Microsoft Teams — awful — this app is so good that you can’t even send a 6mb photo.. Your business is better off using literally anything else to actually get something done. Multi billion dollar corporation can’t even get a chatting app to work properly
Microsoft Teams — Possibly the worst software ever The title basically says it all. It’s bad even by Microslop standards. You’ll use it because you have to, not because you have a choice.
