The ability to lower all hands
As an organizer asks for hands to raise, it would be nice for the ability to lower all hands.

This would also be very useful in a corporate setting, we frequently use hands for voting, or to indicate when people are back after a scheduled break in the meeting.
Please add this feature! -

All teachers across the world say YES we need the ability to LOWER all the hands of our students at once.
Example of what actually happens in Teams classroom class of 45 kids:
Teacher: Raise your hand if you got my email this morning reminding you about the test today!
*28/45 children raise hands*
Teacher: OK, lower your hands.
*5 hands go down
🦗🦗🦗🦗
Teacher: OK everyone put your hands down or I have to click 28 times!
🦗🦗🦗🦗
Teacher: Seriously, put your hands down! (teacher frantically clicking to lower hands)
🦗🦗🦗🦗
60 seconds of instruction time wasted on what could be a good feature!What SHOULD happen:
Teacher: Raise your hand if you got my email this morning reminding you about the test today!
*28/45 children raise hands*
Teacher lowers all hands, while saying:
“Ok how many of you actually read the email and ate a good breakfast in preparation for todays test?”See how much time and trouble this saves teachers?????
PLEASE VOTE!!!
