Join Teams work meetings from Microsoft Teams (free) and vice versa

on
Microsoft Teams (Free) users can currently join Teams for work (or school) meetings only as guests, which requires them to use a browser and results in a sub-optimal experience. The new feature rolling out will allow these users to join Teams for work (or school) meetings in one click, without being redirected to the browser or asked to fill in their name/surname. They will also be able to continue collaborating with the meeting organizer and other participants via meeting chat after the meeting.  The feature will work in the opposite way as well, so Teams for work (or school) will just as easily be able to join meetings hosted by a Teams Free user with one click. This is associated with Roadmap ID: 167326

Contextual Search coming to Teams

on
I am probably not the one working in an organization where searching for items in Teams sometimes feels like a full time job. There are a lot of folders, an Microsoft is probably working on improving the search experience.

One of the improvements have just been announced ready for shipping: Contextual search, also known as "CTRL+F" for users of Windows. Once the feature becomes available, users will be able to search only in a chat or a specific channel using ctrl+f

This feature should be rolling out soon, and be completed by the end of July. Once again, the roadmap item 64017 doesn't reveal much. But make sure to let your users know when the feature is activated in your tenant. I am sure they will find it useful.
