today in a meeting on teams, someone accidentally put their thumb up and on my screen, an animated thumbs-up popped up. it was in a blue chat bubble and the thumbs-up was white so it wasn't like the normal thumbs-up. also during that meeting, the person moved and an animation of fireworks popped up behind them. They could not see these animations but everyone else in the meeting could. They took the meeting on their iPhone. Could anyone point me in the direction to get more info about these animations?

    "It turns out this wasn't related to Teams, but rather to the camera settings in the Mac itself."

    "As usual, thanks Microsoft for nothing."

    Haha. You're blaming Microsoft for not helping you resolve an issue related to FaceTime and iOS? You yourself said that it wasn't related to Teams so why are you mad at Microsoft?!?

    ..because they are still ultimately accountable for the user experience in Teams. They support the software on the Mac platform and should at least be aware of unintended side effects generated by hardware & software interacting with their system. It is my experience that Microsoft has a poor track record of understanding this point throughout the totality of their product lines, Teams being just one example.

    There is no button called "meeting controls" when inside a Teams meeting.

    Three dots, with options like "meeting info" and "settings" exist but I cannot find the live gestures 'on' switch anywhere.

    When I click on gestures, it just shows the optons for the manual gestures only.

    I am updated with latest Teams.

    Does anyone else have any ideas?

    So I already got the hang of

    1. one thumbs up - thumb up appears in an bubble
    2. two thumbs up - fireworks

    And then today I made balloons appear by accident, but couldn't work out how that happened. What do you do to make balloons appear and where is the official guidance on this?

    victory sign with one hand: balloons

    victory sign with 2 hands: confetti coming down
