Join Teams work meetings from Microsoft Teams (free) and vice versa

Microsoft Teams (Free) users can currently join Teams for work (or school) meetings only as guests, which requires them to use a browser and results in a sub-optimal experience. The new feature rolling out will allow these users to join Teams for work (or school) meetings in one click, without being redirected to the browser or asked to fill in their name/surname. They will also be able to continue collaborating with the meeting organizer and other participants via meeting chat after the meeting.  The feature will work in the opposite way as well, so Teams for work (or school) will just as easily be able to join meetings hosted by a Teams Free user with one click. This is associated with Roadmap ID: 167326

Microsoft Teams Priority Notification for all - extended to April 1 2020

Priority Notifications in Teams was released last year, but there will be a limit on how many notifications you can send. This will be based upon your plan.
As a promotion, Microsoft gave us "Priority Notifications - for all" for a couple of months, ending Dec 31. 2019. But the promotion has now been extended to April 1. (Link)

After the promotion, it seems all E3, A3 and higher plans will include unlimited messages, where E1, A1 and F1 will be limited to 5 messages per user per month.

Office Business will also be able to use this feature. Essentials subscribers will have the same 5 messaged limit, and Premium will be unlimited.
