How to replace Skype with Teams as a default online meeting on Outlook (Mac, Mobile and Outlook webapp)

I have M365 for family. When I use Outlook on my Macbook, or iPhone or Webapp (on Edge and Firefox), my online meeting options are restricted to only Skype.

I'm running the latest version of the software, but cant get Teams as my online meeting option. However Teams work fine as an app separately.

I'm Diane, an Office Apps & Services MVP specializing in Outlook, and I’m happy to help you today.

At this time, all Outlook.com users only have the option to create skype meetings.

Thanks Diane, so to confirm. I cannot schedule Teams meetings from Outlook on Mac or from the Webapp - right?

Any ideas of roadmap - is this coming? One of documentation pages said, if you install the latest version of Outllok, it should automatically appear. That didnt work for me.

The documentation refers to the Teams button in Outlook - I know it works with business accounts, I'll double check if it works with consumer accounts - but if you have more than one Office 365 account in your profile, it will only use the default account for Teams meetings. And the account needs to be added as an Exchange account (which it is if you used auto account setup.)

That's the challenge, there is no Teams button in Outlook client on Mac on my personal M365 account. If you scroll down in the doc, https://support.microsoft.com/en-gb/office/the-new-outlook-for-mac-6283be54-e74d-434e-babb-b70cefc77439 you will see Teams button is shown when setting up a calendar invite.
