Updates of Microsoft 365: 27 May- 3 June, week 22/2019

Every week I share with you the latest updates on Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365.

New Feature: Teams read receipts

Until now, you haven’t been able to see within Microsoft Teams whether the other person has read a message. Soon, an update will be released that will allow you to set up read receipts. This means you will now be able to see if your message has been read. You can find additional information here.

Updated Feature: Inside Look for .docx file types

When you log in to the Microsoft 365 website, you can navigate to the programs OneDrive, SharePoint, or Microsoft Teams. These programs contain document libraries (see image below) where your files are stored. If you select a file and then click the “i” in the upper right corner, you will see all the information about that file. Soon you will also be able to see, in the same place, approximately how long it takes to read the file. This update is expected at the end of July.

New Feature: Update Outlook for Windows 2016 or later to modern authentication logon experience

If you are still using Outlook 2016 on your PC, the sign-in screen will change. Microsoft is updating the sign-in screen so that it matches the Office 365 sign-in screen. This ensures that the user experience is the same everywhere. You can find more information here.
