Teams Rooms on Android HDMI Ingest on Android Rooms Cisco Webex Android Teams Room devices also now support adaptive dual screen display whereby the videos of remote participants span both screens (in meeting rooms with dual screens) when content is not being shared. HDMI ingest sharing, also makes it way to more Android Room devices as does far-end camera control for remote meeting attendees. Microsoft also more added support for content sharing on Teams Rooms for Android, as well as increasing the number of video feeds displayed. In addition there is also a new featured known as a “ check-in knock-knock” notification on the Teams Room front room display, which will alert over-running meeting dwellers that their meeting is over and people are waiting to come into the room. Teams Rooms, can now be configure to automatically release reserved conference rooms that are not being used. Walkie Talkie can be added to the App Set up Policy and assigned to Teams Phones devices from the Teams admin center. Walkie Talkie on Teams phone devices can only be used to communicate with colleagues that are part of the same Teams channel so think of it like a silo’d communications group. Microsoft added the addition of Walkie Talkie function already available on mobile, to Teams phones devices which allows users to use instant push to talk to speak to colleagues or other departments. “Word Cloud” Poll Teams Walkie Talkie on Phones When using polls in meetings, this new option is great for more open engagement with attendees, since it allows you to collect attendees’ open-ended responses before, during, or after a meeting, with the results being automatically aggregated and displayed as a word cloud. Word Cloud Poll – adds support for open-text question polls in Teams meetings. This is done by clicking on the ellipsis (…) in your video feed and selecting Pin for me or Hide for me. This is designed to reduce distractions during calls and meetings while still having your video available for other participants to see. This allows you to see your own video in the increased size on your screen or to hide your own video (for you) during a meetings. Microsoft have also made it possible to pin to the meeting stage or hide your own video in meetings. In addition to simply joining a meeting, Microsoft have also made it easy to access meeting and device controls, which includes the ability to cast a PowerPoint, control room cameras and more. The “landing” experience on your iOS device will be optimised for engagement activities to make it easier to raise a hand or react, chat, see all participants, and access Microsoft Whiteboard. With this feature on, audio on your device will be automatically turned off to ensure echo does not happen. In line with what was already supported on Android, it’s now also possible to join a Teams meeting with a single tap on both your Apple iOS device and Microsoft Teams Rooms using the companion feature. Meeting Experiences New mobile meeting experiences on iOS Finally, the last general feature to hit the general release is the ability to pin chat messages, change chat density, and also respond to group approvals requests within Teams Approvals. In addition to this, you can also now see the user’s “local time” allowing you to be more considerate of your colleague’s/customers/partners availability. Subtle but vital, it’s now possible to mute notifications during meetings, so you can better focus. General Updates and New Features Mute Notifications in Meetings Main ones include enhancing the hybrid meeting experience, big updates to Teams Room devices on Android and bringing intelligence and convenience settings to physical meetings with the new “knock knock features”. Like most of the platforms, focus in Feb would adding some love to existing features and enhancing others. Here’s my pick of the new features for Feb 2022 across the two big collaboration, meetings and calling platforms. Following on from a packed January of new features, the slew of updates and enhancements to Microsoft Teams and Cisco Webex isn’t slowing down.
