[@nandydacoycoy980]

My microsoft teams background effect is not working

[@joonasmakinen4807]

Oh, still no video resolution update to full HD (or better)... Oh Microsoft!

[@CoolScratcher]

I love how you're incorporating other people into your entertaining tutorials! The whole story concept is very creative.

[@KevinStratvert]

Thanks so much!

[@elizabethheintzelman1020]

Kevin is my #1 go-to expert for anything tech-related to online teaching!! Don't know where I'd be without all his helpful videos this past school year during the pandemic. Thank you so much!!

[@JeremyMcMahan]

I love how you keep things entertaining as well as informative. The earrings... ROFL!

[@KevinStratvert]

😊 thank you

[@kamalopsu]

It cracks me up everytime you say Kevin Cookie Company...since I actually work for a cookie company and we use teams!!

[@k.c1126]

This is wonderful!!! I did see the new share tray .... but didn't realize all those other things had changed... I really REALLY need the breakout room changes... I'll be using most if not all of them this week ... Much appreciated, Kevin! I will be sharing!

[@DarrellaaS]

Great job introducing the new features using an online interview scenario. It helps to see the features in context.

[@grizzZlyBear]

I love how much time and effort you put to add comedy and humor in your videos! Super engaging/entertaining and informative. Props!

[@Aaronperiod]

Make sure your wife doesn't get jealous with Patty included in the videos. That was hilarious 😂

[@KevinStratvert]

Patty's hairy arms turn me off 😂

[@ixeom]

Thank you for telling me about the timer feature! extremely helpful for my sessions! Love your content!

[@trinidadandtobago7098]

Hey Kevin you are a big help to me in getting things done on my PC thanks a lot bless from the country of the rebulic of trinidad and tobago 🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹🇹

[@determined3462]

Timed Breakout Rooms - yeah my college students will love this feature.

[@baenedict]

This is great! thank you Kevin :) Could you please make a video explaining if it's possible to control the attendee's views? like in zoom where we can set attendees to have the same view as the host, so when the host switches to gallery view, the attendees see the gallery view as well? Thank you so much!

[@ARM971]

Good job Kevin and Gargi! I like the new share content button...makes more sense to me. I also like the ability to keep breakout groups from meeting to meeting. For educators attempting true Team-Based Learning (TBL) on MS Teams it's a huge help.

[@GeertDelmulle]

I’m definitely NOT gonna use that instagram feature that you demonstrated at the end of the video! LOL!

[@KevinStratvert]

Depends on whether or not you still like working at your company 😂

[@kathyw1136]

These new features are fantastic! The breakout room timer will be very useful. And I now learned that when I use a custom background & words or the scenery looks reversed, participants see it the right way. Good to know since one of my backgrounds, I did the text in reverse ... now I’m surprised no o e said “Hey, your Happy Halloween is backwards” 😂😂

[@KevinStratvert]

😂 That's how I learned. I reversed the text only to find out that everyone was now seeing it in reverse.

[@kloudytics]

Hi Kevin, I appreciate your videos that I give them thumbs up just when I start them. Thank you for the things you are sharing with us.

[@idanbjacobs]

Great new features and you explained them well. Breakout rooms usually get me confused...

[@GavinBollard]

I wasn't expecting that comedic turn near the end. Awesome. One suggestion for something that I'd like you to cover ... We use SharePoint at work and I use the extra fields in the file system extensively (so I can add fields like a status - Not Started, In Progress, Completed, Cancelled) next to folders. This is better than constantly moving sub-folders between folders with those names. My wife's workplace uses Google Drive and I figure there must be a similar option there but I don't know what it is. -- Thanks.

[@arpitjain3255]

"Bahut bakwas the" Superb..! 🤣🤣 BTW does the safety first background also add headphones? At 2:11 in the video, Gargi has headphones on but when she shown from another angle the headphones are gone 😄

[@rockabillyron]

HAHAHA THAT PATTI CRACKED ME UP! Nice video, good story, quick recaps and not too much info or other BS. Great job Kevin and Gargee!

[@peterbrown2208]

Very informative and amusing. Thank you Kevin. Who played the role of interviewee? Was she a professional actress or friend?

[@KevinStratvert]

Thanks for the feedback Peter! She's a co-worker from my days at Microsoft.

[@sirmium12]

Splendid new format!

[@peterlee3813]

Thank you for the update on this I am sure going to use them - watching your videos have made me and my team here and some of our business partners use MS Teams more productively so thank you so much for the content and keep them coming

[@JustBlankNoInfo]

Love these features and the addition of the break-out rooms is giving more of a zoooommyy feature 5:21. I think all video conferencing apps are getting an equal amount of features. I guess google will look into bringing more updates to G - Meet coming forward. And also all video conferencing apps have always been on the back of the bus for quite a while! If the features available Desktop and PC is available in phone, it would be a support to the phone users. Also, the live captions with speaker attribution is an awesome addition to teams. Overall amazing! And loved the thumbnail idea where your, in front of the road! Yes, you have improved from our customer feedback and your thumbnails are amazing.

[@charlesrodriguez2176]

Very clever and fun delivery Kevin!

[@madhumitaghosh9256]

Thank you Kevin and Gargee for sharing the new features of Micosoft Teams.

[@geensjc]

Great video! Now I know why I was confused today trying to share my PowerPoint pack. I had a feeling it was a new feature but glad I now know how to use it for future meetings

[@DrShambaviRajagopal]

Absolutely needed this update. Can't wait to try them out in class and consultation meetings.

[@jessicaachavez]

I love your videos! You are my go to guy for all things Teams...and well everything! I do have a question about the virtual background on mobile app....I have an android and I don't see the capability to do that...is there something else i need to do on my mobile to have that show up?! Thank you so much, keep the videos coming!

[@Soccer1577]

This is genius. Thank you, Kevin! BTW, you look good with the makeup :)

[@edd6927]

Wait, how do you get the participants videos at the top??? Is that a new feature too?

[@kevinpatterson3640]

Your videos are hilarius and very educational at the same time. You don't lose track of what you are trying to present in your video and that is amazing. :)

[@neerajbhagat4123]

This time it was a new style - knowledge embedded in conversation

[@dorainez8913]

This new kind of tutorial is hilarious 😂

[@sonyacharie]

Thank you! We are starting to use breakout rooms were on the manual timing struggle bus. Nice new feature!!

[@TrilobitesRTasty]

Can the live captions be saved to a file to help in preparing meeting minutes? (I hope)

[@gajabathiarjuntg2390]

Great video Kevin. These features are more amazing especially that Live captions with speaker attribution is the feature I liked. Thank you Kevin.

[@valeriejones1013]

I’ll start using especially the background option. Great tutorial.

[@caromoneypenny8684]

Love your creativity and easy way to explain the new features. Thank you! I want some cookies now.

[@GargeeSharma]

Don't eat those cookies...bahut hi bakwas hai

[@vinaya2084]

The lady speaks very crisp and clear ! #UniversallyacceptedAccent

[@Darthie691]

Nice! What program do you use to animate a new face with the cool hat?

[@KevinStratvert]

Snap Camera - snapcamera.snapchat.com/

[@dramorsantiago]

Love it, definitely some fun!

[@techmaster8059]

Awesome Video, Kevin!

[@sandro-nigris]

Nicely done! I learn something today. Thanks Kevin.

[@franziskasommerfeld6605]

This is the first video I watch from Kevin. Very entertaining way of presenting new features. I like that. :-)

[@muhammadjavaidakhtar_famil8308]

Hi Kevin I like your videos which are very informative. I have a question. During Teams meeting when you share a slide, you cannot see the participants. How we can see the participants same time when we share our screen. Please help.

[@JustBlankNoInfo]

Wow! These new features are amazing!

[@diegoariel707]

I loved the new format of the videos! Thanks!

[@MsKazzabee]

This is great, thanks Kevin. Is there a way of having the layout like presenter mode but without sharing the screen, I'm thinking of situations where Id have meeting notes and prompts up for just me to see and not share with others but still able to see those Im in the meeting with, hope that makes sense and someone can help.

[@KevinStratvert]

That'd be a really nice feature and I could see lots of people wanting that. Make sure to request at microsoftteams.uservoice.com/

[@DanielBiernaux]

Thanks a lot, it was funny and i learned some new tricks. Thanks Kevin and If you want i got amazing cookies recipes

[@suleimanshaik]

Love the features. Cant wait to use them. Thanks

[@agentray]

Aww my holidays just started! And the update made Teams so much better. Well guess I gotta wait

[@GuilhermeSilva-kx6ms]

Finally the "Meet Now". I had meetings that took longer to start than the meeting themselves

[@ajay3031]

Hi Gargi, What a nice translation (Anuwaad) of your Hindi reply...🤣👌 Loved it...

[@m.likopuha5436]

Love this approach. Great video. Thank you! I would love to try a sriracha creme cookie!

[@manjeetshinde_me]

That was different kind of video, knowledge with fun .... liked it👍

[@ezequielcccln]

Very useful tips for not burning your hand when oven cookis

[@LatifAmars]

This was actually fun

[@monicagerrity6164]

Does the live captioning pick other languages too? I teach French and Spanish and this feature would be useful.

[@idro2k]

@Kevin Stravert On the desktop version of Teams, how do you reply to a particular message just link we can do with WhatsApp? It's possible with a swipe on the mobile app, but how is this done on the desktop? Any thoughts people?

[@praveenbabu3458]

Hi Kevin I’m loving your informative sessions as always. Would it be possible for you to have a session on Microsoft Outlook and Mac OS compatibility? I have been having all sort of calendar sync issues and wondering if it’s something MS has to address or is it just me?

[@chandramohanrao2792]

Kevin can tell about Microsoft outlook but he can't tell about MAC OS because he don't have MAC computer Kevin only uses Microsoft product

[@michaelerzuah1105]

I was going to get an IPhone just to have background blur on my phone. But now I will just update my app and have the feature. Thanks

[@cpaniaguam]

I LOLed and was thoroughly informed. Thanks Kevin Startvert!

[@KevinStratvert]

It was a little bit of a different format, glad you liked it!

[@unlvgrad03]

Now if I can just get a copy of the live captions, that would be amazing.

[@Wudark]

There is a transcription feature on Teams. It’ll give you a copy of the whole meeting.

[@juliepryor4397]

@@Wudark where is the Transcription feature? Thank you.

[@gionatanoff]

Thanks 🔝 as ALL Your videos

[@astrozack-dishon6339]

Hi. Thank you for this! A question... Can a ‘guest’ in a meeting creat and start breakout rooms?

[@kcdw3495]

Oh that was entertaining, thanks for the laugh... you didn't include how to add a filter... like make up... I'll never have to paint my face my face for a meeting ever again 🤣🤣🤣

[@tomrberg]

Apps like ManyCam and similar are able to do that and work with Teams. It is a great app for many other reasons but that part of what it can do. :)

[@kcdw3495]

@@tomrberg thanks Tom i'll give it a try sometime 😁👍

[@KevinStratvert]

@@kcdw3495 I used Snap Camera for the video effects at the end. It's fun little tool: snapcamera.snapchat.com/

[@brandonrussell785]

Hey Kevin! Love your videos! Quick question... do you know if it is possible to include Outlook (web version, obviously) in the left nav bar of Teams? I really want to make this the only tool my company needs, but to do that, I want to run all business tools within the Teams environment. As things stand now, Outlook is the only thing I can't get onto that nav bar. Thanks!

[@prokorshopal4865]

0:06 - Hi Kevin! 👋 7:38 - 812th thumbs up from me! 👍 Cheers!

[@theboatcheat1204]

Please can you advise how to set up an equivalent to an Org-Wide team in an education setting? We need to be able to communicate with all staff and governors across a group of schools, but our education version of MS Teams does not allow this - I suppose because it would also include students.

[@MNDooD]

Super video! I applauded for $2.00 👏

[@KevinStratvert]

Wow, thanks so much Patrick! Much appreciated! 🙏

[@ndabag20]

Do you have videos on teams etiquette, sitting posture, lighting, what backgrounds to use colour of clothes to avoid.

[@harishkumar-vr3yx]

Thanks brother

[@SeeThisWorldBeforeTheNext]

That was hilarious but very good!!! Well done!!! Thank you so much for the new presentation format!

[@KevinStratvert]

More to come!

[@bumpintheG]

Finally custom backgrounds 🥳

[@chriscollins7586]

In zoom there is a pause feature when recording does Teams have this feature. When I'm teaching for 2 hours and have a break in the middle it would be nice.

[@luizpod974]

Thanks Kevin, its a great video. Got one question, if this background effects are kind of restricted. As I am using Microsoft Office package and got the latest version of teams in my mobile, but still not getting the option of background effects. If you could just help! Many thanks

[@karinap7875]

Very helpful, thank you! I just wish the screens were like zoom and mix you in on screen with everyone instead of a tiny screen at the bottom unless there's a lot of people in the meeting to use large gallery mode. I could have seen that my hair was looping all over! 🤦‍♂️. Together mode is just awful, just doesn't do It for me. 😂

[@CeliaKWen]

So glad I have found you Kevin!

[@KevinStratvert]

Glad you found me Celia! 😁

¡Este es un súper video! Compré un aplauso de MXN 20.00 👏

[@KevinStratvert]

Thanks so much Juan! Much appreciated 🙏

[@elainebedard8993]

With the recent updates, I've seemed to have lost the multiple window option. I could have 1 chat window and another for where I was working on a shared file for example. Now when you right new chat, it closes what you are doing and creates a new chat. Any ideas?

[@yihaozhang2633]

Hi Kevin, our system has using Microsoft teams for a long time. I have followed you almost a year. Would mind make a video about teams how to do the weighted grade book. Thanks a lot.

[@A.Amasha]

That's amazing thanks Kevin I hope there is some updates in Onenote

[@nr1egy455]

Your content is very cool and useful Your content

[@FerozKhan-ky1nr]

Insightful

[@jeandesnoyers8572]

Is there a way for attendees to see a cursor pointer while in presentation mode in Teams ? Using it while presenting in PowerPoint

[@KevinStratvert]

Not that I'm aware of... I believe the only option currently is to share you desktop for participants to see your mouse cursor. It'd be nice if Teams also had annotation tools like Zoom. I'm sure they're coming soon.

[@amit673]

amazing video, very very useful. thanks mate, keep up the good work please :)

[@optimizinglearning7963]

Patty was hilarious..good if we could make up that quick before interview

[@sylvainmenard6385]

Love the new structure Kevin, very fresh and interesting

Thanks for the feedback Bill!

[@zanka0101]

Awesome!!

[@PolskiXPawel1337]

Top 5 features in teams 1 need startup teams and close proces and start up again to join to meet. 2 longer loading on website 3 longer loading 4 longer joining to meet 5 if you send something, person who will get your message needs wait from 0.5s to 1 week

[@rozariojerald9845]

Hi Kevin, need a solution regarding deleting MS Teams chat group. I am unable to find any delete option to delete MS Teams Chat group. Thanks for you nice tutorials.

[@conflictrescue5206]

Hi Kevin. Do you know when MS Teams is planning to allow people calling in to a meeting to be placed in a break out room? Currently I think you can't put someone who is just calling in (phone only) in a breakout room. Any ideas? BTW I am eating a chocolate chip cookie for breakfast in honor of the KCC.

[@michelrail]

Kevin, do you know if we are ever going to get the laser pointer and highlighter in Teams PowerPoint presentation mode?
