What’s New in Microsoft Teams Feature Spotlight – Together Mode improvements

Hey Teams Community,

 

We’re discussing a new feature each week mentioned in the monthly What’s New in Microsoft Teams and this week we’re looking at the latest improvements to Together Mode.

 

Together mode allows everyone to feel like they’re sitting in the same room with everyone else. Now, a user’s reactions and raised hands will appear on their person in the shared background making it even more expressive! There are also now name labels that support status icons, such as microphone, active speaker, spotlight, or pin within the meeting. This makes Together Mode more inclusive and easier to understand what is happening in the meeting.

 

To experience the improvements go to View -> Together mode during their meeting.

 

How often does your team use Together Mode? Which is your favorite gallery to use? Are there any specific features or abilities you'd like to see from the Together Mode experience?
