Now, more than ever before, technology has become indispensable for businesses to stay connected and efficient. We are overwhelmed with the excitement surrounded the certification of Neat Board and Yealink Meeting Board – our newest form factor to revolutionize Microsoft Teams Rooms on Android. It combines audio, video, touch display and compute as a single unit that instantly allows teams to collaborate remotely through web meetings. With the newly released update 3 (App version: 1449/1.0.96.2022120503), our users can now take advantage of the amazing feature of having touch-enabled experiences which makes it easier for all parties involved in a meeting to engage with each other on Teams Rooms on Android, especially with boards. This is a great step forward in enhancing user experiences and we are delighted to share this with you.
Easier to Launch Microsoft Whiteboard
Whiteboarding on Teams Rooms on Android is now even easier with the new Whiteboard button on the home screen. Now, whenever an idea pops up, users can quickly and easily go to a device and start whiteboarding without having to invite other people into a Teams meeting. This streamlines the process significantly, removing prep time and friction from the starter experience for the user so that collaboration is better enabled and productivity boosted. Admins can allow this feature to be used by enabling the “Allow initiate Whiteboard” setting on each device. This allows users to take full advantage of Microsoft Whiteboard’s collaborative platform when it comes to brainstorming in Teams Rooms wherever they are!
Bring Microsoft Whiteboard into an ad hoc meeting
You can now also seamlessly switch from a local collaboration experience to an online co-creation space by tapping “Start meeting” on the local whiteboard screen. ”Start meeting” quickly kicks off an ad hoc meeting and automatically presents the whiteboard you started on the home screen onto the meeting stage for you. From there, you can add remote participants into the meeting and contribute across the same whiteboard in real-time. Instead of having to choose between viewing the gallery or the whiteboard shared, you can now also see remote participants side by side with Microsoft Whiteboard using the Content + Gallery layout, allowing you to collaborate with greater ease and efficiency.
New Share Menu
Focus AV is excited to share that content sharing in meetings has been made even easier with the redesigned share menu in Microsoft Teams. With a single tap of the “Share” button, you now have access to all content options within one place, including the brand new support for Microsoft Whiteboard on resource accounts. Focus AV encourages those looking for more information about managing Microsoft Whiteboard sharing in Teams to click the link provided for detailed instructions and guidance. This streamlined content sharing experience makes virtual collaboration quicker and more convenient than ever!
Touch Awareness and 4K Support!
The newest addition to Microsoft’s firmware makes it much easier and more convenient for you to operate a Teams Room. With the ‘Enable touch screen controls’ setting, admins can turn on the new touch screen support feature – allowing you to control the room system from both the touch display at the front of the room and the touch console. Plus, with 4K display now supported, users can benefit from even more stunning visuals for their meetings on large screen devices. Make your life simpler and upgrade to our latest device today!
What a gigantic shift forward for Teams on android!
