New app should launch soon

Microsoft has now published a very interesting outlook on innovations that are planned for Microsoft 365, some of which was already known from a blog post by the Windows team.

This includes the unveiling of a new Teams app called Queues, which will allow users to answer customer calls in Teams. This app is scheduled to be released in June. However, there are a few other entries on the Roadmap website, all of which are new. One entry explains a new feature that will be introduced in Teams for the desktop in May called “Meet Now”.

Microsoft writes in the function explanation: “Start a meeting with your colleagues with Meet Now in group chat. Meet Now for group chat is an experience that enables ad-hoc, real-time communication with your team in a hybrid environment.”

Another new feature for Teams in the desktop app is planned for May with enhanced desktop sharing:

‘)/*]]>*/ “We are introducing enhanced desktop sharing, which allows developers to enable screen sharing of certain app content. Unlike the currently existing Share to Stage feature, meeting participants cannot join in interact with the shared app, but only see the presenter’s screen – similar to screen sharing, only with one click.

The shared content is also automatically recorded in the meeting recording. This is ideal for co-consumption scenarios and requires little investment from developers.”

Starting in April, users of the Teams desktop app will also have the option to obtain extended consent from other users to record meetings:

“The meeting policy that requires explicit consent to recording is expanded to include transcription. If the policy is applied, a notification will appear when recording or transcription is initiated, asking all participants for their consent to transcription and recording “Until a user agrees, they will not be able to unmute themselves, turn on the camera, or share content in the meeting.”
