View other people's work location
Enhance collaboration with your team by seeing where other people are working from and if they're nearby. You can view the location of other people in your organization from several places in Teams.
Note: By setting up your work location, anyone in your organization can view this information.
View location from a profile card
When you hover over someone's profile picture in Teams, you'll see a preview of their profile card. Here’s an example of how work location appears on a profile card. Their location will appear next to availability and time zone.
View location from a one-on-one chat
During a one-on-one chat, Teams will show an indication at the top of the chat window if the other person is nearby. This information only appears when both the sender and receiver are in the same office building during the chat.
