Team Drives is becoming Shared Drives

May 2, 2019

Google has determined that "Shared Drives" is a more appropriate name for the storage currently labeled "Team Drives" in your Google apps. The changeover begins in late May for mobile users and in early June for desktop users.

Other than the new name appearing on your screen, you should not experience any changes in functionality unless you have a desktop shortcut linked to content inside a shared drives; those will need to be updated.

More information is available on the Google blog at https://gsuiteupdates.googleblog.com/2019/04/shared-drives.html.
