Microsoft Teams on Android has received a new update today, bringing some important new features to the tool. With the releases, Teams is bumped to version 1416/1.0.2019042206 on Android.
The main addition here is Whiteboard, which is now integrated with Microsoft Teams on Android. The feature comes a week after Microsoft brought Whiteboard to its Teams application on Apple’s iOS.
Whiteboard was launched on Windows 10 last year. A collaborative application, Whiteboard integrates with inking capabilities of Microsoft Office to bring content to a screen that can be used by multiple users across devices.
Users can work together either locally or online with touch support. Documents sync automatically to the loud for use on any PC at a later date and inviting another user is as easy as sharing a link.
