How to blur background on meeting in teams from android

Copper Contributor

Hello! How can I blur the screen during a meeting from an android device? From iOS everything works excellent! The blur screen button is not available on your Android device. Thanks for the help!

@ruscins Hi, not really updated here but I don't think "blur" is supported on Android yet. I'm gladly enlightened if I'm wrong though :)

@ChristianBergstrom There is a video available on Youtube showing this feature - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FPTbeeW55_A just doesn't mention which software is running this feature. I checked on iOS is available but on android is not! :( Anyone know when it might appear on Android?

@ruscins @ChristianBergstrom There is a uservoice item with this request.  Please vote on it and  you'll get updates as it moves along in the process:  https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/40577536-background-and-blur-o...

@ThereseSolimeno Thanks, but the feature is already enabled for iOS and as far as I know (as mentioned in my previous reply) don't think Android is supporting "blur" yet. In my opinion @ruscins can disregard from the linked UserVoice.

Thanks @ChristianBergstrom The UV item is a generic request for background blur on all mobile phones, which would include Android.  Voting for it doesn't hurt.  IMHO.

i want blur background option please

Still not working in my Android device

With android can't blur background! :( tested 25.07.2021

Microsoft just wants to punish the android users, not let them have blurred background
