Live Captions in Teams Meetings (NOT Live Events)
I know that Teams offers live captions/subtitles with Live Events. Does that same functionality exist for regular Teams meetings (i.e. not live events)? If so, how do I turn that on?
Thanks.
- May 20, 2021Live captions in teams are available for enterprise users only. Assuming you are logged into MS teams with an enterprise account, it should show up for you. Can you also confirm the employee who can see this option is also a user under the same enterprise? There is tenant policy that the tenant admin needs to set to enable live captions, It might be worthwhile to check with your tenant admin if the right values are set.

Hi Ilya Bukshteyn Sohail_Tariq -- can you comment on whether translated captions are on the MTR roadmap? I see a roadmap entry for translated captions in Live Events and one for in-language captions for MTR. But not one where MTR content can be translated/captioned. Thx!

Dec 16, 2019june-m-dayon hi June, this is not MTR specific. We will have translated captions on MTR when Teams has translated captions in Teams meetings (not Live Events). I can't comment on that timing though sorry.
