    In my case, every raised hand notification causes the 'More Actions' menu, where the raise hand option is found, to close itself automatically. This makes it extremely difficult to raise my hand when other people are doing so at the same time.

    Great idea.
    Need a key combination for riase hand, lower hand during teams call. It wil be really helpful.

    A keyboard shortcut for raise you hand that did not activate the call bar on teams would be really useful as if there are quite a few people on the call. The call bar blocks, their faces and makes it difficult as a deaf person to lip-read whilst the call bar is up, so that I can raise my hand.

    Great suggestion! A shortcut would hugely improve accessibility. My colleague is partially-sighted and cannot use the hands-up feature at the moment. It would be very helpful if this could be fixed.

    Please make the shortcut toggle "Raise Hand", meaning that applying the shortcut while hand is raised will lower the hand.

    Great suggestion Christopher; I was trying different combinations (CTRL + SHIFT + H / U / R..), but nothing.
