Are you able to hear the video now?- IevaNatalijaBrass ContributorThank you, all good, sound is there, no issue.
- Audio working now.
- theresa_muehlbauerIron ContributorI've tried refreshing the page, too, still no luck.
- theresa_muehlbauerIron ContributorI can't hear anything, trying on two separate computers with audio on...
- ShijiThomas9385Copper ContributorThe "Yam this" feature that we have on our SharePoint is not a Chrome extension per the below thread, it's a web part on SharePoint. Any news on what will it be called and when? https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/viva-engage-administration/yammer-com-is-rebranded-to-viva-engage-starting-today/m-p/3870014#M27

Welcome to the Microsoft Viva Engage and Yammer Rebranding What's Next event! This live hour gives you the opportunity to ask questions directly to the Microsoft team. Please post any questions in a separate, new comment thread on this event. Thanks!
- Is everyone hearing audio? Nothing on my end.
- IevaNatalijaBrass ContributorHow to enter the live event? Don't see any video about to stream or link to join (tried calendar link, but it took me back here).

The livestream will begin shortly, and will appear at the top of the page - theresa_muehlbauerIron Contributor
The email I got said, "This will be a livestream video AMA directly on this event page." It's also stated in the description above.
(edit)
- IevaNatalijaBrass ContributorThere is a list of speakers added to the event, I would expect them to speak 🙂 Otherwise this is a very bad UX.
- LesterBrentOccasional ReaderAre there any plans on brining this back for GCC High customers?

Yammer still appears in the app launcher for our tenant. Any word on when that will update?

This should be finished by the end of the week (July 14). If you still see Yammer, please submit a help desk ticket. We answered this in min 13:42 in the live Q&A as well.
- ShijiThomas9385Copper ContributorThe banner image on our Profile has disappeared ever since the rebranding. Will the banner image appear again or would end users need to upload manually?

I prefer using Viva Engage on the web vs. in the Teams Viva Engage app, and one main reason for this is because on the web, I can see the names of my communities at a glance by default. In the Teams Viva Engage app, I have to expand the side panel each time. Has there been any consideration for making Communities more visible in the Teams Viva Engage app? Perhaps if the reverse were true, that Communities were expanded by default and could be collapsed, it would be a good compromise 🙂
- Strongly agree the experience on Web is sooo much better than in the Teams/Outlook app. Please make them consistent and use the web UI as the preferred model.
- Bernie MurtaghIron ContributorAnd I support this too - I only deliver end users training via the Web, never in the Teams app , echoing the feedback above - please, please replicate the Web version layout across all other Viva Engage access ways, it will make a huge difference to user experience and adoption.
