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.

Greg Davidson I can see Life captioning now available for Teams meeting. I am not sure when this feature not available when joining a meeting via Desktop but works well on mobile app.
Also, when I make an audio or video call with Individual then life captioning won't be available (find the screenshot below). Has anyone experienced same thing or actually not available? Please advise.

Calls are not the same as a meeting they do not get the live caption.
