Remove default tabs from Teams chats

My team NEVER uses the default tabs in Teams meeting chats

  • shared
  • recap
  • breakout rooms
  • Q&A
  • Meeting Whiteboard

These are nice to have but will almost never get used by my teams, whereas something optional like a One Note might be used all the time, but hidden because all of these empty/unused tabs are in the way.

Please let us customize or rearrange this tab row!

    These are part of the core of the meeting experience. 

     

    There is not (yet) a way to disable them by default for the meetings you organize.

      Yep they should change this for sure. It feels really random! 99% of meetings are just quick meetups and would use none of these tabs. It just feels really user unfriendly to throw all the extra clutter in our faces.
