How to Use StopVeille with Microsoft Teams

Follow these 6 simple steps to stay always available (green) on Teams

Open StopVeille and Scroll to Bottom

Click on the StopVeille extension icon in your Chrome toolbar (top-right corner). The extension popup will open. Scroll down to find the Microsoft Teams section.

Enter Your Teams Email Address

In the 'Already purchased?' section, enter the email address you use to log into Microsoft Teams. This is crucial for the extension to maintain your Teams status.

Tip: Use the same email you use to log into Teams in your browser

Activate the Microsoft Teams Button

Find the Microsoft Teams toggle switch and swipe it to the right (ON position). The switch will turn blue, indicating that the Teams feature is now active.

Premium Feature

The Teams auto-status feature requires a Premium subscription (€3.49/month or €34.90/year)

StopVeille Opens a Teams Browser Tab

StopVeille will automatically open Microsoft Teams in a new Chrome tab in the background. This is necessary because the Teams status feature only works with Teams in the browser, not the desktop app.

Important: Works only with Teams in Chrome browser, not the desktop app

Log into Teams with Your Credentials

In the Teams browser tab that just opened, log in using the same email address and password you entered in StopVeille. This synchronizes your status between the extension and Teams.

You're All Set!

Congratulations! StopVeille is now active and will keep your Teams status green (available) automatically. You can minimize the extension window but keep it running in the background.

Your Teams status will now stay green automatically!

Important Notes

First-Time Setup

The first time you activate StopVeille with Teams, we recommend closing the extension and reopening it to ensure your connection is properly registered.
