Same Copilot. Another screen to explain.
The public Message Center archive’s September 29 update moves the planned Teams Copilot redesign to October 2026, previously September. The full-screen experience includes Tasks; the side pane does not. A cleaner Teams experience sounds good. It also means the instructions people learned may no longer match the screen in front of them. Before updating training, check the actual rollout and capture the interface your team has. A roadmap screenshot is not everybody's reality.
