However, despite the fact that Microsoft Teams has become an essential service within companies, it still has some shortcomings in its mobile applications. Among them, the lack of the Picture-in-Picture mode in its iOS application stood out, which forced the application to be kept open in the foreground so as not to lose call information.
PiP mode coming to Microsoft Teams for iOS in December
Thanks to the roadmap of the application, we have been able to see that Microsoft plans to launch the Picture-in-Picture or floating window feature for Microsoft Teams during the month of December.
Thanks to this feature, during a call, we can exit the application and have the call stay in a floating window in the foreground while using the iPhone or iPad. In this way, for example, we can search for a document on the iOS device to obtain more information to provide during the call.
In addition, it will not be a Microsoft Teams window without functionality, but, apart from being able to resize it and place it anywhere on the screen, you can alsoWe will be able to mute or activate the microphone and activate or deactivate the camera.
Another of the features planned for the month of December that appears in the roadmap is the granularity of notifications, which will allow IT administrators to decide what type of notifications reach users of Microsoft Teams.
For the month of February, the launch of Microsoft Teams Premium is scheduled. This add-on will add AI functions to meetings, as well as improve their personalization, facilitate the creation of webinars and allow the use of confidentiality labels on meeting content.
