Multi-window for chats and more
I want to have separate top-level windows for each person I'm chatting with, rather than tabs.

Multi-window chat is in testing. I hope to have great news regarding rollout to the public rings soon.
We are working to ensure that multi-window and other future multi-window experiences are of the highest quality when they release.
Thanks!

Is there an ETA on this? I hate having to flip back and forth between the team pages and the call screen. Planner does not keep the filters I set, so I lose them when I have to switch to the call screen.
I don't want to use the browser, because I already have 15 tabs open in Chrome. Finding my team page in that would be a nightmare during a call. -

When will this feature be available - its crazy that to get a document link or access a Wiki I have to lose the context of my current activity - which is typically ongoing. It makes no sense when you consider how people use all the other MSFT productivity tools.

Doing this would make it almost as good as Lync was.

Is there any update on this? My organization is waiting on this feature before adopting teams completely.

I was amazed when it was decided that we would use Teams as our main contact-application, and it didn't feature this, as well as a calendar. We have the calendar now... but are anxious to have this feature too, so that we aren't stuck with something that doesn't have separate chat windows when we shut down Skype.

I hope that you will also be able to pop out a meeting for example or just to have two different teams open because it's a nightmare at the moment.Especially with all meetings being teams based, it's just not possible to follow the meeting and check anything else in teams at the same time.

Hopefully it will not just be 'multi-windows chats', but also have the ability to have a variety of teams windows open while in an active meeting. We are all multi-tasking nowadays. I am struggling just to find a document in another Team that I want to share while in a Teams call. It is like going back to the days before windows.

I hope this includes multi-window support by organization. I currently have to keep one organization open via the Teams app and the other via a browser, which isn't terrible, but isn't ideal either.

is there a way to see multiple people on video chat all at once?

It would be useful to have multiple video windows open at the same time like ZOOM has

With so many working from home or remotely due to COVID-19, this would be a welcome addition! We are continually looking for alternative meeting sites.

this is something that is really needed for me as well. When on a meeting share I would like to be able to use a separate chat window to communicate with other team members.

Skype for business has been removed.. All we have is teams, it is impossible to try and chat and work in teams at the same time, why not sort this out Before you started to remove Skype?

even just allowing the chat to be a separate window so I can navigate through files, calendar etc without losing the chat would be good
