After the first hour on Fridays I am using the caffeine app to keep my Teams status from going idle and getting my other life stuff caught up before the weekend.
Just go into the calendar and click the 'meet now's button, select do not use audio, and then set your status back to available or busy. No third party software needed.
Thanks! I heard of that as well, but i am pretty sure that activity is recorded, and if they look at Teams activity, it would definitely be odd to see someone being in a meeting all day. I've been using this app for 2 years now, and it doesn't install on the system. Part of my responsibility is application management, so if anyone's looking over apps, it's me anyway!
