Stream App in Microsoft Teams will be updated to Stream (on SharePoint)

Microsoft Teams is about to get an update to Stream (on SharePoint), replacing Stream (Classic) in the desktop client. This means that the Stream app in Microsoft Teams will soon only display Stream (on SharePoint) content, while no longer showing Stream (Classic) content. The new app features similar content and features as found on the Stream start page. The Stream app is accessible across different touchpoints on Teams, including the Stream app on Teams left rail, Stream on Teams message extension, and the Stream Tab on Chats/Channels. Users can easily locate the app by tapping the three dots on the Teams left rail then searching for Stream. The updated version of the Stream app will allow users on desktop Teams to easily find and watch videos without switching apps and will allow them to pin the Stream app on the side panel for more convenient access in the future. The rollout of the update will begin in early November and is expected to be completed by mid-November. After the update is rolled out, all users will see the Stream Start page when they access the Stream App from Teams desktop client. There is no action required to prepare for this change, but notifying users about the update can be helpful.
