MC284259 – Updated May 13, 2022: Microsoft has updated the rollout timeline below. Thank you for your patience.
Microsoft Forms has always focused on providing the best polling experience to our customers. However, according to customer feedback and telemetry, Microsoft is determined that many people don’t know the “Forms” App provides polling capability in Teams.

To provide a better experience Microsoft is delivering a new Teams app specifically for polling capabilities. This new app will be discoverable in Teams meetings/chats as “Polls”.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 84567
When this will happen:
Microsoft will begin rolling this out starting in Teams meetings and then moving to Teams chat in February (previously mid-October) and expect to complete by late May (previously late April).

The original “Forms” app will be retired from Teams meetings in March (previously January), and then will be retired from Teams chat in April (previously February). Once retired from meetings/chat the “Forms” app will only be available in the Teams channel tab to provide Survey capabilities.
