Hi, Microsoft 365 Insiders! We’re excited to announce that you can now show or hide the Discover feed using a new setting in Microsoft Teams.

 

Show or hide the Discover feed in Microsoft Teams

 

The Discover feed aims to make it easier for you to stay informed and engaged with the content that matters most to you in Microsoft Teams. Its purpose is to improve information discovery and awareness by delivering a personalized, relevance-based feed of Teams channel content. This feed helps you stay on top of important conversations you might otherwise miss due to information overload.

 

We’ve heard from users that you’d like the ability to toggle the Discover feed on or off in your Teams interface. Now you can!

    When will this be available for mobile devices, where screen real estate is even more negatively affected by the Discover feature?
