Teams Personal Tabs will now appear on Outlook for Android. This will complete the changes announced in Oct 2022 in the Outlook Blog

Teams apps must be validated to work on the mobile form factor. After the user or admin installs the app on Teams or Outlook, the personal tab will now appear automatically in Outlook for Android. 

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 123861

When this will happen:

Preview: Teams Personal Tab apps are already available in the Android Beta program.

Standard Release: We will begin rolling out slowly late March and expect to complete by late April. 

How this will affect your organization:

The “more” button in the Tab Bar at the bottom of Outlook for Android will be renamed “Apps”. The Files, Contacts, pages as well as any Mobile-ready teams appear will appear there. The user can re-order and pin these apps to the Tab Bar. 

What you need to do to prepare:

This is part of a larger change to accommodate extending Teams apps across Microsoft 365. Full documentation for these changes across Microsof 365 can be found here. Extend Teams apps across Microsoft 365
