Show video for all people in Video meeting
Currently when in a video chat it only shows the active video for the last 4 people that have spoken in the chat. On the bottom bar it shows icons for all those in the chat. If it could show small video for all those in the chat that have their cameras turned on it would be beneficial. Then everyone on the video conference can see the reactions of others, whether they were the last to speak or not.
This is a problem with most video chatting applications. Google Hangouts it the only one we have found that shows video of all the participants on the screen.

Agree with comments below. Teams is fantastic for the online teaching and learning we are doing, but with all the video conferencing we need to do we need it to show everyone, not just a few!

Is there an ETA on this feature? With the current amount of video conferencing this is no longer a convenience but a necessity.

Now that we have so many people working remotely this is more critical than ever. Can you get moved up the priority list?

we really need to have a live date for this feature; keep saying only that MS is working on it, just force us to choose a competitor tool

We need to see all the participants videos during a chat, Zoom allows for this

need to be able to control the size of the video windows too. If a camera shares an entire conference room, the size of the video window needs to be adjusted to accomodate

This is seriously killing our adoption of Teams.
Request to purchase Zoom licenses for a few departments is being processed 30th March 2020.
Microsoft, PLEASE TELL US WHEN this basic feature is going to be available before the whole take up of Teams is ditched.
A brand new COVID-19 hospital was built much quicker than this is taking. -

Almost 2 years to develop this feature.... come on guys.... Now with quarantine everywhere and everybody working from home, Teams is definitely out of the game.... Our organization with 900 employees across the world is seriously thinking on a change...

Zoom has gallery view. Webex has grid view. Teams needs this now more than ever.

When will this be implemented? Zoom and WebEx are killing MSFT , we implemented Teams 8 months ago with great fanfare but now with our entire workforce working from home people from the CEO to the workers want more on the video layout. MSFT we are about to switch to Zoom because of this delay

While Microsoft is actively pushing to use their Microsoft Teams, it limits the active video tiles of the participants to a mere 4. I have since moved over to Zoom which besides having better VC features like more than 25 video tiles, it has transcription features which is a must for VC.
