Update Teams mobile app by October or lose your calendar
The date has been brought forward to the beginning of October, leaving users until the end of September to update the Teams mobile app.The October deadline applies only to the iOS and Android apps.

Managed devices are another matter, and administrators will need to ensure an updated Teams app is deployed, though we can't imagine why they might hesitate to roll out one of Microsoft's updates.
