I found that my blog URL would load as a Personal App, but not Google or OWA. I proceeded to modify the manifest.json and repackage my app many times (cruel joke Microsoft releasing App Studio a few days after all this testing). Personal App, I was greeted with an empty tab…

Of course Teams App Studio came out a few days after I built my test apps by hand using JSON, take my word, App Studio is so much easier! This lead me to review some great Teams App development content from Not to be discouraged, I thought to myself why don’t I just create an app… A bit of research and I came across the details that a Personal App is an app classified under the personal scope and is a static tab:

Sure there was Microsoft Apps for Flow, OneNote, Planner and Stream, but not even the Website app that is available in the add tab under a channel. A bit shocked at what I found, there was no Personal App entry for Mail. Microsoft announced on January 29, 2018, new features for Microsoft Teams which included Personal App space and the Store:Įxcited that this announcement could finally put the end to my reliance on Outlook and allow Teams to be my single communications app, I headed to the Store.
