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?

    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 2 hands: confetti coming down

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

    Go to the video camera when it's active and de-select "reactions", and they'll stop.

    As usual, thanks Microsoft for nothing.

    You're right. The documentation about this feature for end users and admins is not available in a timely way.

    Given that this feature is on the social side of a business feature, I feel MS's comms hasn't been planned/executed as well as it should be.

    This response completely missed the question. It was not about clicking a button, it was about a person that raised their thumb.

    For the balloons - do the peace gesture.
