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

Large gallery view is coming to public preview

on
The much anticipated "classroom" experience with 7*7 video streams is coming in public preview soon. There might be a few things you need to train your users on:
  • It is not turned on by default for meetings
  • Users may turn it on/off at any time during a meeting
  • It requires at least 10 active video streams to be available
The large gallery view will be available behind the three dots on the control bar (...) for the active meeting. This is all according to a message in the message center recently, and in the road-map ID 65333. According to the road-map, the release of the feature has been moved to August.
