Two Major Admin Control Updates for Copilot and Agent Management

Teams Mobile Feature updates for iOS

This feature should be rolling out to most tenants already

The second feature coming out is the capability to hide (or show) Teams calls in the native iOS call log. I am looking forward to this as I have more than once accidentally called someone back with the wrong modality when I'm not in the office and not on Wi-Fi.

Be aware that calls made prior to turning this feature off (removing calls from the call log). Already placed calls will remain in the list. The setting only applies to new calls.

This last feature should be rolling out in September.
