As we approach General Availability for Microsoft Places, we’re winding down the Preview program and sharing more information about the Places mobile app.
Preview program:
We will stop accepting new sign-ups for the Preview program when we reach General Availability and will close the Preview on January 6th, 2025.
Mobile app:
Furthermore, development of the Microsoft Places mobile app has been put on hold and we will instead prioritize adding Places experiences within the Teams and Outlook mobile apps. The beta version of the Places mobile app will no longer be available via TestFlight effective immediately, and existing users will lose access when the build expires at the end of November 2024.
[How this will affect your organization:]
If you’ve joined the Preview program, you’ll be able to continue evaluating all Places features until January 6th, 2025. After that date, core Places features will remain available to all users with a qualifying Microsoft 365 subscription. Enhanced features will require a Teams Premium license, and some features will require a Microsoft 365 Copilot license. If you need more time to evaluate these features, you may consider acquiring trial licenses.
