The Microsoft Teams app strengthens your team or project collaboration by integrating your chat discussions into your digital home. It allows you to mirror specific channels from any team to keep up with the latest project updates and send messages without needing to switch platforms.

The app shows complete message histories, including attachments and replies, so you have full context for every conversation. Reactions to messages are not shown.
