What is new in Microsoft Teams Free for May 2025

We’re always working to make Teams Free even better, and in May, we introduced a couple of handy new apps you can use in both chats and communities. Plus, it’s now easier than ever to notify everyone in a chat with just a few clicks. Read on to see what’s new and how you can make the most of these updates!

New apps available in chats and communities​

Your chats and communities just got a whole lot more dynamic. You can now add apps that make staying informed, celebrating wins, and finding quick answers easier than ever:

• Celebrate: Give kudos, mark milestones, and share special moments with your group.
• Weather: Stay on top of the forecast without leaving your chat.
• Stocks: Keep an eye on real-time market updates right where you collaborate.
• Wikipedia Search: Look up facts and context instantly—no need to switch tabs.

Whether you’re planning a project, chatting with friends, or building a community, these apps help you do more—right where the conversation happens.

Notify @Everyone in Chat​

This useful feature is now available in chat in Teams Free and you can now simply use @Everyone to instantly alert all members in the conversation—no need to tag people one by one!
