Microsoft Teams: Usability Improvements to In-Meeting Notifications

Microsoft Teams is updating the user experience for how in-meeting notifications are displayed. With this update, there will be less distractions during meetings and it will be easier to understand important information (e.g. a meeting being recorded). 

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 96283.

When this will happen:

We will begin rolling out in early August and expect rollout to be completed by early September.

How this will affect your organization:

Notifications will now be consistent in design and in a consistent position when displayed (top center of the meeting stage) as bubbles stacked on top of each other. This will avoid overlaps and give the user a cleaner visual experience. In addition, users can also snooze repeat notifications, such as chat bubbles.

What you need to do to prepare:

There is nothing you need to do to prepare for this change. You may want to notify your users about this change and update your training and documentation as appropriate.
