I have confirmed with the feature team that this is, in fact, functioning as you expect today – you can share your entire desktop or a specific window directly from a private chat session, without starting audio or video. The mute microphone button is enabled so you are able to easily add audio by “unmuting”, but we realize this is causing confusion. We are working on further experience improvements.

Please feel free to respond to teamsml@microsoft.com if you are still seeing issues.

Thanks,
Alex

We are excited to share Teams now honors Windows 10 Focus Assist with native Windows notification support. To enable, please switch notification style preference to Windows to bring OS notification features such as Quiet Hours, Focus Assist, Action Center and more into Teams.

We have added a white bell to the red dot in the systray icon as a visual indicator when you have unread messages. We hope you find this useful!

Thank you for your feedback! For information on deleting channel and private meeting recordings, please visit https://support.microsoft.com/office/delete-a-meeting-recording-in-teams-b1ff8102-72da-4a6c-9979-d03a55d9b65d.

We are excited to share that this feature is now available to all iOS users. To clear account information, just swipe left on the account on the login screen.

You can now hyperlink any text.

To do so click on the “A” icon just under the compose box, this will expand the compose box.
From the expanded view, you can type the text you wish, select the text then click the chain icon at the top of the compose box.
This will allow you to add a hyperlink to the selected text. You may also enter the text into “text to display” field in this pop up box.

Thank you for the suggestions and keep that feedback coming!

This is now done for Android and iOS!

This is now available on all platforms.

Switching status to “completed” from “We have this”.

Hi everyone,

We do have this feature!
In order to have the Teams application start in the background you will need to set these two items.

Under Settings, within Teams, you need to select both of these options:
1) Auto-start application
2) Open application in background

If those two are selected, upon restart of the OS when you first login in, the Team app should start in the background and only appear in hidden application bar and not on the main Taskbar.

Please NOTE: If you exit the Teams application, then click the Teams’ icon to launch the app, it will now load in the foreground. The background start up is only when you first log into the OS and the application automatically launches in the background.

-Warren

This is done! For more details on how you can join video meetings from your smartphone, just read our blog post announcing this feature: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/t5/Microsoft-Teams-Blog/New-collaboration-features-in-Microsoft-Teams-mobile-apps/ba-p/89019

Thank you for your support of Teams and your great feedback, which made this feature possible. THANK YOU!!

We have removed the 24-hour limit on all messages. We have also added the ability for owners to delete messages. HOWEVER, on the latter function, this is not on by default — the IT admin needs to enable the feature to allow team owners to delete any message.

Let me know if you have any questions!

You can start a chat or channel conversation, by using the “Share to Teams” button in Outlook. For more information, please visit https://support.microsoft.com/office/share-an-email-to-teams-from-outlook-20ccf1da-2817-4e0b-a42d-017ec4cd229b.

I’ve gotten feedback from the feature team that copying images into chat should work, but different than you would expect with external images. External images pasted into a message will show up as a link. Prior to the update, pasting an external image simply broke.

If you wish to paste an external image and not have it appear as a link, then you will need to past it into the clipboard and then copy the image from the clipboard into the message.

This item is completed.

Here is an article that goes through how to use Planner within Teams.
