Microsoft Teams launches new chat feature that will make you feel less tired of video calls

It is being rolled out now, and will be available to all users by August. In addition to this new function, Microsoft is introducing a smattering of other features. This includes Dynamic view – which will let users frame work content and call participants side-by-side – as well as video filters to adjust lighting levels or soften the focus on your camera. It has also extended the number of people you can have in a meeting up to 1000, while presentations can now have 20,000 participants watching. Suggested replies, similar to the automated replies in email apps including Gmail, is coming to Microsoft Teams too. Finally, Cortana integration is being brought in to the mobile version of the app, giving the software usability via voice commands. Users can ask Cortana to make a call, join meetings, share files, or send messages.
