Within the last month or so we go the pop up to try the "new" Teams... The new APP is having so many issues!! We use it for conference calls, and myself and others are having issues where the notifications are not showing, or when invited to a meeting it won't let you "join". I keep having audio (microphone & speaker) issues which I NEVER had previously. I really DO NOT like it. I've switched back to the older version for now. I simply refuse to keep dealing with all these NEW issues with the NEW version! :( It's simply horrible!
Managing sound and video settings during Teams meetings and calls for optimal communication
Locked Question. This question was migrated from the Microsoft Support Community. You can vote on whether it's helpful, but you can't add comments or replies or follow the question.
Even the idea of having a "submit" button at the bottom of this reply screen is nauseating. Most forums have "send". "Submit" because you must be submissive to Microsoft. The company with the whips, chains and slavery.
Ahahaha, that was good one.
This question can be expanded to just about every Microsoft product. The new UI design philosophy is terrible -- why? Instead of focusing on users, the focus seems to be on what the developers want to do and what the marketing team wants. Why are options being taken away from users? Why do the interfaces keep reverting back to what the developers decided they want instead of what the user specifically configured? Why is screen real-estate being eaten up by non-useful content? Why are features that have been around for years being stripped out?
I really hate seeing "new user experience" in Microsoft products these days -- knowing that I'm going to be forced into this "new experience". Not because I dislike change, but because I've found that almost every "new experience" Microsoft pushes out on us is a bad experience.
Why?
Check the "max gallery size" setting under view. Sounds like it may be set to 4.
This is a nice marketing reply, but is not at all true. As others have expressed, the new Teams is not faster, more reliable, and more feature packed. Rather, it has gone the other directon.
I used to point people to Teams regularly (as a consultant for Microsoft partner companies). No more! Now if a company is using something else, I don't even mention Teams because I feel like Teams is likely to be worse than what they currently use.
