Microsoft has incorporated useful and fun new features in its latest version of Teams. These features are designed to make meetings more engaging and efficient in a remote work environment. To gain access to these features, please make sure that you update to the latest version of Microsoft Teams. 

• Controls to mute and unmute, toggle the camera on and off, chat, and leave the meeting are always visible at the top of the meeting window.
• The Large Gallery Mode, accessible from the three-dots menu in meetings, allows a total of 49 (7x7) video feeds to be displayed at once! To use Large Gallery Mode, a meeting must have at least 10 participants sharing their video.
• Although your colleagues may be far apart, Together Mode can bring them together in a virtual auditorium.
