We're saying goodbye to August and Microsoft is wrapping up the month by highlighting features that came to Microsoft Teams. In a blog post, the company details what changes it made to Teams during the last month. As we have seen this year, development of Microsoft Teams is gathering pace. As the communication app wars continue with the likes of Zoom and Slack, Microsoft has been proactive in ensuring Teams is evolving. Leading the features debuting in August was Spotlight Mode. Microsoft says this tool will arrive over the coming months and allows a meeting host to lock their video as a main view. In other words, the presenter can make their content the same view across all participants. Elsewhere, Microsoft made some more subtle changes. For example, meeting recordings can be saved for users who are in countries where recording is disabled. This would be regions where Microsoft has not in-country datacenters. When a user saves a recording, it is stored in the nearest Microsoft Azure region.
