** iOS and Android users can privately zoom into a slide, but it does not use an optical zoom. (I.e., objects may get pixelated.)
Known issues
When a meeting attendee is zoomed into a slide and seeks in a video, they will both seek the video and pan the slide.
Known limitations
- Presenters cannot magnify slides.
- Cannot magnify/pan over a linked video as linked video controls take precedence over magnifying a slide.
Enable your Teams client for the public preview
- First, IT admins need to set an update policy that turns on Show preview features. Learn how at Public preview in Microsoft Teams - Microsoft Teams | Microsoft Docs.
- Users then choose to join the public preview individually. See Get early access to new Teams features - Office Support (microsoft.com) for instructions.
