Microsoft recently announced that it is making several improvements to the Meeting toolbar in Teams. The goal behind refreshing the Meeting toolbar and adding new features to it is o make it easier for users to navigate meetings and uncover new features as well as capabilities. Here’s everything you need to know about these improvements:

First up is the added capability that allows users to raise their hand via the new dedicated Raise Hand button that can be found in the redesigned Meeting toolbar.

Second up, you will now be able to make use of the More menu to find any command they are looking for via the new and well-defined sub-menu groupings.

What’s more, you can easily switch views during meetings by simply clicking on the View button and get to select the option that best suits you.

That said, it is worth noting that these improvements have currently been rolled out exclusively to users in the Teams Public Preview channel running on either Windows or macOS. The improvements are likely to be rolled out to general availability in form of a future update.

Radu Tyrsina has been a Windows fan ever since he got his first PC, a Pentium III (a monster at that time). For most of the kids of his age, the Internet was an amazing way to play and communicate with others, but he was deeply impressed by the flow of information and how easily you can find anything on the web. Prior to founding Windows Report, this particular curiosity about digital content enabled him to grow a number of sites that helped hundreds of millions reach faster the answer they're looking for.
