New Microsoft Teams Filters Enhance Personal Appearance in Video Meetings

[Tony Redmond]

Two new filters available for Teams video meetings promise to help participants look their very best. The brightness filter projects a soft light onto the face of participants while the soft-focus (aka Botox) filter reduces the effect of facial wrinkles and cease lines. Although no miracles are promised, the new filters should help everyone look a little better the next time they turn on video during a Teams call.

Thanks @Tony Redmond - this feature is long-awaited.

@Tony Redmond do you know how to turn the filter option on for users? We don't have that option available - followed the steps and not present. Thanks!

According to MC352623 (May 19), the roll-out was delayed and won't be complete until late June. Your tenant might not have received the update yet.

Oh thank you so much!

I don't have this option. I have downloaded the latest version of Teams today but still no luck.  My colleagues have this option but I don't.  Is it available on a Macbook Air 2022?

I don't use a Mac, so I can't confirm if the Mac version of Teams has these filters yet. Maybe another Mac user can comment?

@Tony Redmond 

My MS Teams check updates is on this version 1.5.00.21463 (64-bit). It was last updated on 06/08/2022.

But I not see the new feature available on my PC. I am using window 11. Pls help. 

Thanks in advance.

Can anyone in your tenant access the new filters? If not, the software update hasn't reached you yet and you'll have to wait for the deployment to reach you.

Hi Tony: I am using the free (classic) version. Is this feature available as well?
Would u pls help elaborate in previous answer a little more detail about deployment still not reached my tenant?

You might want to contact Microsoft support to ask your question. I don't work for Microsoft and have no idea what configuration or environment you're running in, so I can't answer your question.

In terms of the software, most features depend on a mixture of server and client components. If you have an updated client and the server hasn't been updated with the necessary components, you don't see a feature. It's as simple as that.
