Every week I share with you the latest updates on Microsoft Teams and Microsoft 365.
New Feature: Teams Read Receipts
Until now, you couldn’t tell within Microsoft Teams whether the other person had read a message. Soon, an update will enable you to set a read receipt. 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 access programs like 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 an approximate read time for the file in the same location. This update is expected at the end of July.
New Feature: Update Outlook for Windows 2016 or Later to a Modern Authentication Logon Experience
If you are still using Outlook 2016 on your PC, the sign-in screen will be changing. Microsoft is updating the sign-in screen to match that of Office 365. This will create a consistent user experience across all platforms. You can find more information here.
