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

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

Disable participants video feed in Microsoft Teams

There are certain situations where an organizer would like to disable a person's video feed or maybe disable the video feed for all participants.

According to the Admin message center, there are two roadmap Items coming our way to solve these issues. Roadmap Item 70620 and 70621 are scheduled for release during the month of April. Only organizers have this ability, so make sure you update the training on how to create and manage a meeting with control.
