Keep Active for Teams

Keep Active for Teams stops your Microsoft Teams web status from flipping to "Away" when you step away briefly. While the toggle is On, it dispatches a synthetic mousemove and Shift keydown on the Teams tab every 4 minutes — just under Teams' ~5 minute idle threshold — so your status stays Available. FEATURES • One-click On/Off toggle in the popup • Works on teams.microsoft.com, teams.live.com, and teams.cloud.microsoft • "ON" badge on the toolbar icon while active • Setting persists across browser restarts • Pauses immediately when toggled off — no reload needed • No accounts, no analytics, no tracking, no data leaves your browser HOW TO USE 1. Open Microsoft Teams in your browser. 2. Click the extension icon in the toolbar. 3. Flip the switch to On. 4. Leave the Teams tab open. Your status stays Available. PERMISSIONS, IN PLAIN ENGLISH • Storage — remembers your On/Off setting. • Tabs — lets the popup tell you whether a Teams tab is currently open. • Host access to teams.microsoft.com / teams.live.com / teams.cloud.microsoft — the activity simulator runs only on those pages, nowhere else. PRIVACY This extension does not collect personal information, does not transmit any data over the network, and does not use analytics or remote code. The only thing it stores is a single boolean (your On/Off toggle) in your browser's local extension storage.
