Hello Office Insiders, I’m Lishan Yu, a program manager on the PowerPoint team. You might have heard that we announced the PowerPoint Live in Teams feature at Microsoft Ignite last month. Today, I’m excited to show you how to check out this new experience, and start presenting in Teams meetings from PowerPoint.

Presenting in Teams meetings

Presenting in a meeting used to be as simple as clicking Slide Show in your PowerPoint deck. Nowadays, even though you may not be in the same room as your audience, we believe your flow to present should be as easy and intuitive – clicking the Present in Teams button in PowerPoint is the only step you need to take to present the deck in your Teams meeting!

How it works

Give the feature a try next time you need to present in a Teams meetings:

• Join a Teams meeting or an ad-hoc Teams call.
• Open your presentation in PowerPoint for Windows.
• Click the Present in Teams button in the top right corner.

Scenarios to try

Ready to take the PowerPoint Live feature for a spin? Try some of the scenarios below.

As a presenter :

• After clicking the Present in Teams button in PowerPoint, notice that you can see both the chat and your content at the same time in Teams (and don’t feel like you’re missing out on the discussion).
• Take advantage of features like grid review and slide notes to present more effectively.

As an audience member :

• If you joined late, move back through the deck and quickly catch up without having to ask the presenter to stop and recap what was already shared.
• Interact with and experience the richness of the content being presented such as better video quality, live web links, and more.
• Make any adjustments you need to more fully enjoy the presentation (i.e., use high-contrast mode).

Requirements

In order to try out the feature, you will need to:

• Have the latest Teams desktop app installed.
• Store the presentation on OneDrive for Business or SharePoint.
• Join a Teams meeting before clicking the Present in Teams button in PowerPoint for Windows.
• Be using an Office 365 E3/A3, Office 365 E5/A5, or Microsoft 365 for Government license. 

Availability

This feature is rolling out over the next several days to Insiders running Beta Channel Version 2104 (Build 13926.20000) and later.

We’d love your feedback, so please let us know how you think. To get in touch, do either of the following:

• Inside the app, select the Help button in the top-right corner of the app.
• Respond to this post or tweet at @OfficeInsider .

You can have your PPT cake and eat it too

PowerPoint is likely one of the most popular apps shared during a Teams meeting. There’s a reason when you bring up the share options, PowerPoint takes up more than a third of it. People present slides all the time. But are they using PowerPoint to its potential when they use Teams? Most people do not. To view a video version of this post (lots of video demos!), press play below. (You should watch it, actually.)

PowerPoint has a lot of really great features and while this isn’t a PowerPoint best practices post, I do really appreciate PowerPoint for many of its professional features, like smooth transitions (Morph can be amazing), slide notes, non-distracting animations, screen annotations, and especially presenter view.

Well, if you’ve ever tried to present a slide deck in Teams, you’ll know that some of these features can be hard to find depending on which method you use to share your slides. There are three main sharing options and these are the only three I’ll cover today.

The three options—and I’m going to stick to this naming convention throughout the post—are The Teams Built-In Share, Desktop Window Share, and Presenter View Share.

TL;DR: For the most part, you want Presenter View Share. Launch your slideshow like you would normally. Alt-Tab to your meeting and share the window (not the screen) , Alt-Tab back to your presentation, right-click, and select Use Presenter View . That's it! Below is a more in-depth review of this way and the most common other ways to share slide decks during a Teams meeting.

Teams Built-In Share

Teams Built-In Share is the first option we’re going to discuss and it uses the built-in PowerPoint option. The sharing drawer shows you all your recent PowerPoint files. Though note that they’re only ones you’ve accessed in SharePoint or OneDrive; you don’t see anything from your local device or other cloud locations like Google Drive. Whether you know it or not, this method makes use of PowerPoint for the web—or formerly known as PowerPointOnline—so you’re getting the “Lite” version of PowerPoint when you present. That can work in many situations, especially if your slides are simple and straight forward.

There are a couple major upsides to this method. First, everything stays right in Teams and you have full control of your computer and its screen, unlike normal presentation mode with PowerPoint, where it completely takes over your screen. The other is that your viewers can actually choose to jump ahead or backward in your slides at their own pace without impacting what others see, which is a benefit you don’t get from any otherPowerPoint sharing option. You can disable this if you want to keep them on the slide you’re presenting, though. I generally don’t like people being able to jump slides on their own; it's usually more a distraction than a benefit. So for me, this isn’t a compelling feature.

The major downsides to this method are that you’re stuck with PowerPoint Lite: animations and transitions are sometimes really poor—and yes, animations and transitions are incredibly powerful for your message when they’re used correctly. But more importantly to me, you don’t get presenter view, so no annotations, no notes, and you have absolutely no idea which slide or animation is coming up next (unless you practice your slides a lot, but let's be real: you probably cobbled them together right before the meeting). Those downsides are the reason that I never use this method, even if it is right up in my face when I want to share a slide deck in Teams. The only way you’ll find me using Teams Built-In Share is once presenter view is built into PowerPoint for the web. 

Desktop Window Share

Desktop Window Share, the second option, is a nice little hack for sharing your presentation from the desktop app, complete with all the slick transitions and animations you’d like. You won’t get presenter view with this method, but you will get safety and comfort of all the full-fledged features in the desktop app and it won’t take up your whole screen while you’re presenting. Though it will include a little chrome in the top toolbar.

This method is similar to what people use when they set up kiosks for people to browse at expos or stores, except in this case, it doesn’t take up the whole screen. To present this way, you need to toggle a setting. Jump into the Slide Show tab in PowerPoint and click Set Up Slide Show . Select Browsed by an individual and click OK.

Now when you present this slideshow, it’ll show your entire slide in its own window, without the rest of PowerPoint showing. It’s like a mini PowerPoint presenter mode. To share this window, jump to your Teams meeting, click Share , and select PowerPoint under the Window section. Handy.

Presenter View Share

Note: This feature seems to have been recently removed from PowerPoint on macOS; I haven't been able to test it on Windows to confirm any impact there. I've reached out to Microsoft for some explanation or insights on this. I'll provide an update when I have one.

And lastly, Presenter View Share is my favorite way to present a slide deck during a Teams meeting and it’s really the subject of this post. Presenter View Share gives you all the features of the desktop app—because that’s what you’re using—including presenter view. That means you get notes and annotations, can see the upcoming slide, and can jump around slides as much as you want.

This technique is actually stupidly simple, but it’s not obvious at all. To share your presentation this way, it works best if you’re only using one monitor. If you have a second monitor, I’d actually recommend disconnecting it. And that’s coming from someone who always uses two monitors. The reason for that is the feature isn't available when you have two monitors because you'll already have presenter view on one of them and you can't share PowerPoint as a window when you have two monitors because the app takes up two windows and becomes essentially disqualified from being shared as a window (the only way to share the slides is by sharing the whole screen, which is less private).

First, have your PowerPoint file open and start the presentation the way you normally would. Now, Alt-Tab (Command-Tab on Mac) back to your Teams meeting and share the PowerPoint window—not the whole screen. Alt-Tab back to PowerPoint. And here’s where the magic happens: right-click on your slide and click Use Presenter View . And that’s it!

Wait, you’re worried that the people on the other end are seeing presenter view? They’re not. In fact, they didn’t even see you right-click because the menu isn’t part of the window. For them, nothing happened. While on your side, you just went from low fi to high fi in a matter of two clicks. From here you can do all the stuff you want through presenter mode and everyone on the other end will only see slides.

So, why do I like this method the most? Because I get to have my cake and eat it too! Sure, the slides take up my whole screen, but that doesn’t stop me from jumping around my device all I want. Alt-Tab is your best friend. If you’re not an Alt-Tab person now, you will be moving forward, because it’s a great little trick for jumping between apps.

That means I can be taking notes about a potential customer in my OneNote app during a demo without them knowing. Or I can check in on the meeting itself to see if someone’s raised their hand or said something I need to respond to. All they’ll ever see is the current slide—even if you see another app on top of it—because all I’m sharing with them is the PowerPoint window.

Edit: Some folks have reported they can actually use two monitors and still are able to share the single presented-view of PowerPoint. I can't confirm this because on Mac, the Use Presenter View isn't available when you have two screens (the option is not available in the right-click menu). That said, if you use multiple monitors, you're a power user. So take 2 minutes to check with a colleagues to test if it still works in your situation to pull this off, but with the multiple monitors you're used to. So if one of your original thoughts was, "I can't not use two monitors", test before you knock it. 🙂

Frankly, I’ll never look back on any other presentation options again. At least until Teams Built-In Share—remember, I really mean PowerPoint for the Web when I say this—finally transitions from PowerPoint Lite to a full-fledged version of PowerPoint. Once that day comes, I may convert. But for now, I’m sticking to the desktop app because it’s a beast.

How to Present PowerPoint in Teams: A Step-by-Step Guide for Professionals

When it comes to presenting PowerPoint slides in a Microsoft Teams meeting, many of us have encountered a mix of curiosity and confusion. We’ve all been there—scrambling to share content seamlessly while keeping our audience engaged. Using PowerPoint Live in Teams is a game-changer that elevates your presentation experience with interactive features and personalized viewing options . Imagine being able to annotate, navigate, and even translate slides effortlessly. It’s like having a magic wand for your presentations.

This is a sample bold text.

Let’s face it, presenting isn’t just about sharing your screen anymore. We need tools that can keep up with the dynamic nature of our meetings. Whether you’re opting to share your entire screen or just the slide show window, each method offers its pros and cons. PowerPoint Live stands out by offering not just basic sharing but also the ability to zoom in on content and even open slides in new windows. Our objective is to make your next presentation a breeze, with fewer “technical difficulties” and more “wow moments.”

One of the coolest features of presenting in Teams using PowerPoint is the seamless integration. You’re already in a Teams call, so why not maximize its capabilities? Simply hit the Present in Teams button, and you’re ready to captivate your audience. This user-friendly approach streamlines the process and helps you focus on what truly matters—delivering impactful content.

Maximizing Engagement in Teams Meetings

Effective Teams meetings require dynamic presentations, interactive sessions, and captivating multimedia content. Below are strategies to achieve these goals.

Utilizing PowerPoint Live for Impactful Presentations

PowerPoint Live in Microsoft Teams is our secret weapon for creating impactful presentations. With it, we can effortlessly share our PowerPoint files directly within the Teams interface.

Audience view becomes interactive: they can navigate through slides at their own pace while we remain in control in presentation mode . This dual functionality keeps things flexible and engaging.

Incorporating animations and transitions enhances the visual appeal, making our presentations far more interesting. To keep the audience engaged, we can also annotate directly on slides, drawing attention to key points.

Facilitating Interactive Sessions with Microsoft Teams

Beyond just presenting slides, interaction plays a crucial role in engaging our participants. Utilizing the Teams chat feature, we can invite real-time questions and comments, which keeps the meeting lively and interactive.

Polling is another great tool we use. By asking for audience reactions through quick surveys, we can gauge their understanding and keep them involved.

With the raise hand feature, audience members can signal their desire to speak without disrupting the flow, making our Teams meetings orderly yet interactive.

Leveraging Videos and Animations to Captivate the Audience

Using videos in presentations can significantly boost engagement. Embedding compelling videos within our PowerPoint slides captures the attention and provides a break from static content.

Adding animations not only makes our slides visually appealing but also helps in emphasizing important points. Custom animations for text and images can make the content more digestible.

We ensure to use these multimedia elements judiciously to avoid overwhelming our audience, maintaining a balance that keeps them captivated without distracting them from the main content.

Enhanced Collaboration through Teams Tools

To effectively present PowerPoint in Microsoft Teams, leveraging collaboration tools is crucial. These tools facilitate real-time engagement and inclusive communication, making sure everyone is on the same page.

Real-Time Co-Authoring and Sharing Features

Teams Meeting and Microsoft 365 allow for seamless collaboration on presentations. We can co-author PowerPoint slides in real-time, ensuring our content is always up-to-date. Through OneDrive or SharePoint , we can easily share our PowerPoint files.

The File tab in Teams offers a central location for all shared documents. This means we no longer need to email files back and forth. It also maintains version history, so we can revert changes if needed. Co-presenting becomes straightforward with the share feature in Teams, letting us hand over control to another presenter effortlessly.

Inclusive Communication with Various Teams Features

Ensuring inclusive communication is essential for effective collaboration. Teams supports accessibility features like high contrast view and screen readers , making content accessible to everyone. We can use SharePoint sites to store and organize resources, and collaborate using the chat and discussion forums.

During a presentation, Inclusive communication tools allow us to cater to diverse needs. For instance, while presenting in Teams, we can highlight key points using bold text and bullet points for clarity. Integrating files from SharePoint or OneDrive ensures everyone has the latest material, fostering a cooperative environment.

Utilizing these robust tools in Teams helps us present more effectively while ensuring inclusivity and collaboration.

Advanced Teams Meeting Management

Hosting effective and secure Microsoft Teams meetings involves several advanced techniques, from leveraging productivity tools to ensuring stringent security measures.

Boosting Productivity with Microsoft Teams Meeting Options

We’ve all been there—juggling between screens or apps while presenting. Simplify this by using Teams’ native PowerPoint Live to present directly from the Teams app. Use the “Presenter View” to see your notes while attendees see the slides, enhancing your delivery.

Enable dynamic camera control for better engagement. Adjust or spotlight specific participants, ensuring key contributors stay visible. Coupled with the “Together Mode,” it creates a more interactive experience.

Also, you can share computer sound during presentations. This is perfect for embedded videos or audio clips. Just click “include computer sound” before sharing.

When multitasking is needed, manage different views efficiently. Split your display between the presentation and other Teams tools, like chat or participant lists. Keep interactions smooth without switching tabs, maintaining focus on the presentation.

Securing Meetings and Managing Network Resources

Security is paramount in a digital workspace. Ensure all our Teams meetings are secure by requiring attendees to authenticate before joining. This restricts access to authorized personnel only.

Enable the lobby feature to screen participants. We can admit or decline guests as appropriate, keeping the meeting secure and private.

To secure your device , always run the latest antivirus software and use strong passwords for Teams access. Implement end-to-end encryption for sensitive discussions.

Managing network bandwidth is crucial for Teams on the web or extensive meetings. Reduce camera resolution or encourage voice-only participation in large groups. Monitor your network’s performance and prioritize essential services to maintain a stable connection.

If bandwidth becomes an issue, suggest turning off the camera for non-speaking participants. This strategy reduces load, maintaining the quality for the hosts.

These measures guarantee a productive and secure Microsoft Teams meeting environment, ensuring we utilize our resources effectively.

‘Focus on the physical’: Inside the Blues’ emotional bonding session

By roy masters, save articles for later.

Add articles to your saved list and come back to them any time.

It was like picnicking on the slopes of a smouldering volcano. Melbourne coach Craig Bellamy and I joined the NSW team for a convivial, sober dinner on Monday night at a restaurant only 200 metres from the MCG, in a pre-State of Origin game atmosphere shrouded in smoke and threatening flame.

The “glass houses” comment by Blues coach Michael Maguire – his perception of Queensland hypocrisy in their aggrieved reaction to the high tackle on their fullback Reece Walsh in the first Origin match – has produced clouds of vapour but no real fire.

Maguire and Queensland coach Billy Slater spent a half-decade at the Storm as assistant coach and player respectively, tempering any on the record tit-for-tat exchanges. Yet there is such a simmering intensity about these coaches, they treat the alphabet as if starts with X and ends with O.

The relaxed atmosphere at the team dinner, in East Melbourne’s Il Duca restaurant, followed a more solemn mood at the earlier jumper presentation, held at the nearby team hotel.

Maguire views the Blues jumper as sacred. He waved it repeatedly in front of his team, as three former NSW players living in Melbourne were invited to express what it means to them. Robbie Ross went first, followed by Robbie Kearns and then Ryan Hoffman. Hoffman told the players of a phone call from the QRL in 2002, requesting he commit to the Maroons under one of those contrived attempts by Queensland to alter history and geography.

Hoffmans’s father, Jay, played three games for Queensland in the pre-Origin days, suggesting Ryan was eligible under a Maroon-invoked father/son rule. But Ryan told the players his younger life was dedicated to representing NSW and he was forever a Blue. A former Storm premiership player, he said that when he watches Melbourne games, he is emotionally invested but when NSW plays, he slips his 2014 Origin winning ring on his finger.

Didn’t get Origin … Mitchell Pearce with NSW coach Craig Bellamy in 2008. Credit: Tim Clayton

Bellamy, having won only two games in his three-year term as NSW Origin coach, admitted he did not understand Origin until his tenure was almost over. “Throw out the technical and the tactical,” he advised the Blues who listened in respectful silence. “Focus on the physical,” he said, meaning to concentrate on the effort plays.

Then followed the almost tearful presentation of jumpers to the Origin debutants: fullback Dylan Edwards by his partner Nadine and two young daughters, and bench back Connor Watson by his mother, Jodie.

While there was an almost religious solemnity to the jumper presentation and a more relaxed feeling at the dinner, volcanic clouds hang over Wednesday night’s game.

No player on either side will risk a high shot resulting in a send-off but there will be fiery exchanges, mainly on NSW’s left side where the combination of Jarome Luai and Latrell Mitchell have bought into Maguire’s Blue brotherhood ethos.

The Blues were shocked by the vitriol from the Queensland bench in Sydney when NSW centre Joseph Suaalii was sent off for his hit on Walsh . It wasn’t just Maroons assistant coach Nate Myles who ridiculed Origin rookie Suaalii as he left the field. The Blues trainer told the NSW coaching staff that the Queensland bench exploded in anger and abuse.

When there is collective abuse of a player whose dismissal so early in a match is almost certain to guarantee victory, it reflects the pent-up anger reserved for Origin matches.

It was reminiscent of the end of an Origin match in Sydney 30 years ago.

On that occasion, following a match-winning try in the corner by Mark Coyne in the last minute of play, Queensland half Allan Langer pushed over a despondent NSW hooker Ben Elias and spewed out a lava flow of abuse.

Still, it was the first game of the series and is further relevant to today, insofar as the second match in 1994 was also played at the MCG.

Queensland lost their cherished underdog tag, as they have for Wednesday’s match. The bookies can’t split the two teams, but the Maroons will be the crowd favourites. Victorians cheers for Queenslanders, partly because they holiday there and also by reason of their perception Sydney is the power centre of Australia.

Being cast as top dogs does not sit comfortably with Queensland Origin teams, evident by their record of losing four of the five Origin matches at the MCG. The 1994 MCG game was a snorefest, evincing cries of “boring” from the crowd. But thirty years later, the citadel of sport in Melbourne is set to rumble as up to 90,000 people watch a combustible encounter that will be anything but a picnic.

Microsoft Copilot Studio: Building copilots with agent capabilities

• By Omar Aftab

• Copilot category
• Announcements

At Microsoft Build 2024 , we’re excited to announce a host of new powerful capabilities in   Microsoft Copilot Studio —t he single conversational AI tool you can use to create your very own custom copilots or extend Microsoft C opilot experiences with your own enterprise data and scenarios. The first of these are c opilots that can now act as independent agents— ones that can be triggered by events— not just conversation— and can automa te and orchestrate complex, long-running business processes with more autonomy and less human intervention.

For instance, consider the potential of a copilot that can react when an email arrives, look up the sender’s details, see their previous communications, and use generative AI to trigger the appropriate chain of actions in their response. From understanding the intent of the email, to look ing up the sender’s details and account , see ing their previous communications, checking inventory,   responding to the sender asking for their preferences, and then taking the appropriate actions to close a ticket — orchestrating and shepherding an entire process over days.  

With such capabilities, copilots are evolving from those that work with you to those that work for you. They can be designed to handle specific roles or functions, such as IT, marketing, sales, customer success, and finance across various industries, including travel, retail, and financial services.  

With these new capabilities, here are some examples of the kinds of copilots our customers can build

• IT help desk .  IT support is complex, involving tickets, order numbers, approvals, and stock levels . O pening and closing a ticket can be a long-running task that spans days. A copilot can now handle this process, interfacing with IT service management applications, resolving IT tickets with context and memory, creating purchase orders for device refresh, and reaching out and getting managers approvals — all independently .
• Employee onboarding . Onboarding new employees is often expensive and slow. Now, imagine you’re a new hire. A copilot greets you, reasons over HR data, and answers your questions. It introduces you to your buddy, provides training and deadlines, assists with forms, and sets up your first week of meetings. Throughout all of this, the copilot is in touch, guiding you through the weeks -long onboarding and account set up processes.  
• Personal concierge for sales and service . Balancing exceptional customer experience while meeting ambitious revenue goals can be challenging. When a copilot serves guests, i t can use the memory of previous conversations with guests to remember their preferences, make reservations, handle complaints, and answer questions related to the products and services on offer. The copilot learns from its interactions and proposes new ways of handling customer scenarios. By doing so, copilots can increase upsell and attachment rates, driving revenue for the resort while simultaneously enhancing guest experience, satisfaction rates, and repeat business.

Let’s dig deeper into a few of the underlying capabilities that make all this possible:

• Asynchronous orchestration of complex tasks . The first is the ability to use generative AI- powered   planning and reasoning to manage complex, multi step, long-running tasks. For example, reacting to a new order means determining the need to verify inventory, trigger ing the right payment processes, pinging a supervisor for approval if the amount is above a certain threshold, and replying with a confirmation. Many of these events can take hours—or even days— to complete, but the copilot will run through them , maintaining the necessary state and context to do so.
• Memory and context . One of the frustrating things about support has traditionally been having to repeat information: who you are, what your policy number is, what your address is. There is no continuity of conversation. Copilots will now learn from previous conversations from the users and utilize this knowledge to continually personalize interactions . A copilot may not need to ask you for your laptop model or your address when you call again for the same issue. Conversations will thus become long-running, contextual, and deeply personalized.
• Monitor, learn, and improve . Copilots can now learn and adapt, offering monitoring and teaching capabilities to make their interactions better. Each copilot records a comprehensive history of its activities, providing transparency into its performance, including user interactions, actions taken, and feedback received, and you can see what decisions it made — and correct and teach them — with just a few clicks.

• Delegation with confidence and guardrails . When developing copilots with agent capabilities, establishing clear boundaries is paramount. Copilots operate strictly within the confines of the maker-defined instructions, knowledge, and actions. The data sources linked to the copilot adhere to stringent security measures and controls, managed through the unified admin center of Copilot Studio. This includes data loss prevention, robust authentication protocols, and more.

The se advanced new capabilities in Copilot Studio are currently accessible to customers participating in an Early Access Preview where organizations such as Centro de la Familia are excited to explore agent capabilities that support teachers and case workers, allowing them to spend less time on administrative tasks and more time working with children, ultimately leading to better child outcomes . Based on feedback from program participants, we will continue to iterate and refine these capabilities for broader access in a preview planned for later this year .  

Additional innovations with Copilot Studio

There’s a lot more to share at Microsoft Build with Copilot Studio, and we’ll touch on just a few of our new capabilities here. To learn more — just sign up and try it out for yourself here .

Here are a few examples of how Copilot connectors can transform copilot experiences for specific personas or functions:

• Legal and Compliance . Navigate complex legal landscapes with a Copilot extension that queries specific legal datasets, ensuring controlled and compliant responses without overwhelming users with extraneous information.
• HR Helper . Assist employees with accessing essential resources for benefits and PTO policies, and even book time off directly through Copilot.
• Incident Report Coordinator . Workers can locate the right documentation, report incidents, and track them efficiently, all within the context of the chat.

Starting in June 2024, developers can access the public preview for Copilot connectors and stay informed on updates here .

Conversational analytics (private preview) : One of the most common asks from customers has been the need for deeper insight into what their copilot is doing, how generative AI is responding, when it was unable to give the right answers and why — and recommendations on what to do to improve it.

Enhanced security and controls (public preview ) : Administrators can now configure advanced settings beyond the default security measures and controls. With Microsoft Purview , Copilot Studio administrators gain access to more detailed governance tools, including audit logs, inventory capabilities, and sensitivity labels. They will be able to review comprehensive audit logs that cover tenant-wide usage, inventory (with API support), and tenant hygiene (such as data loss prevention violations and inactive copilots), enabling them to effectively monitor business impact. Both creators and end-users will be able to view sensitivity labels when responses are generated using AI-powered answers based on SharePoint documents.

With all the amazing innovations, numerous organizations are using Copilot Studio to build transformative generative AI-powered solutions. Check out this story from Nsure on how they are using Copilot Studio:

Get started today with Copilot Studio

This is just a glimpse of all the exciting innovation around copilots and Copilot Studio — we have a host of exciting new capabilities to share in our sessions at Build.

Relive the biggest moments from WWDC24

Today Apple kicked off its 2024 Worldwide Developers Conference, revealing groundbreaking new technologies and features during a keynote that was live-streamed from Apple Park to millions around the world. During the weeklong event, developers and students will have unique access to Apple experts, as well as insight into new tools, frameworks, and features to help elevate their apps and games.

This year’s keynote revealed Apple Intelligence , the personal intelligence system that combines the power of generative models with users’ personal context — at the core of iPhone, iPad, and Mac to deliver intelligence that’s incredibly useful and relevant. Major updates also come to iOS 18 , iPadOS 18 , macOS Sequoia , and watchOS 11 , including the biggest-ever redesign of the Photos app, game-changing productivity tools, and new ways for users to express themselves and customize their devices. visionOS 2 brings powerful new ways to interact with Apple Vision Pro and exciting updates to spatial photos and Mac Virtual Display, and tvOS 18 infuses useful information in Apple TV+ films and shows on users’ biggest screen in the home.

Beginning this month, Apple Vision Pro is also coming to more countries and regions, including China mainland, Hong Kong, Japan, Singapore, and next month will come to Australia, Canada, France, Germany, and the U.K.

Apple Intelligence harnesses the power of Apple silicon to understand and create language and images, take action across apps, and draw from users’ personal context to simplify and accelerate everyday tasks. A cornerstone of Apple Intelligence is on-device processing, which delivers personal intelligence without collecting users’ data. Private Cloud Compute sets a new standard for privacy in AI, with the ability to flex and scale computational capacity between on-device processing, and larger, server-based models that run on dedicated Apple silicon servers.

With iOS 18 , users will now be able to arrange apps and widgets in any open space on the Home Screen, customize the buttons at the bottom of the Lock Screen, and quickly access more controls in Control Center. With the biggest redesign ever of the Photos app, photo libraries are automatically organized in a new single view in Photos, and helpful new collections keep favorites easily accessible. All-new text effects come to iMessage, amplifying any letter, word, phrase, or emoji with dynamic, animated appearances to bring conversations to life. Users can also now communicate over satellite in the Messages app, even when a cellular or Wi-Fi connection isn’t available.

With iPadOS 18 , the iPad experience is more versatile and intelligent than ever with new features and apps designed for Apple Pencil. The Calculator app comes to iPad with Math Notes, which allows users to type or write out mathematical expressions and see them instantly solved in their own handwriting. New handwriting tools in Notes including Smart Script make handwritten notes more fluid, flexible, and easier to read.

With macOS Sequoia , Continuity between iPhone and Mac gets better than ever with iPhone Mirroring, enabling full access to and control of iPhone directly from Mac. Safari gets another big update with the new Highlights feature for effortless information discovery on webpages while browsing. Gaming is even more immersive with Personalized Spatial Audio that puts players in the middle of the action like never before. And Apple Intelligence unlocks new ways for Mac users to enhance their writing and communicate more effectively, create playful images in seconds, and more. Apple Intelligence takes full advantage of the power of Apple silicon and its Neural Engine, and will be supported by every Mac with an M-series chip.

watchOS 11 offers breakthrough insights into users’ health and fitness, and more personalization than ever. The new Vitals app surfaces key health metrics and context, the ability to measure training load offers a game-changing new experience when working out, and the popular Activity rings are even more customizable. The Smart Stack and Photos face use intelligence to feature more individualization, and Apple Watch and the Health app on iPhone and iPad offer additional support for users who are pregnant. Check In, the Translate app, and new capabilities for the double tap gesture come to Apple Watch for added connectivity and convenience.

Just months after its initial release, visionOS 2 brings powerful spatial computing experiences to Apple Vision Pro, including new ways for users to create spatial photos with the images already in their library, intuitive hand gestures to easily access important information at a glance, and new features for Mac Virtual Display, Travel Mode, and Guest User. visionOS 2 also introduces exciting new capabilities like Follow Your Breathing in the Mindfulness app, SharePlay for Photos, and multiview in the TV app.

With tvOS 18 , intelligent new features like InSight — and updates to Enhance Dialogue and subtitles — level up cinematic experiences, while new Apple Fitness+, Apple Music, and FaceTime capabilities get even better on users’ biggest screen. The Home app gains new features with iOS 18, like guest access and hands-free unlock with home keys, delivering effortless and secure access to the home. AirPods software updates will transform the way users respond to Siri with new gestures, take calls with friends and loved ones, and immerse themselves in their favorite games.

Customize access to meeting recordings or transcripts in Microsoft Teams

As a meeting organizer, you can choose who has access to your meeting’s recording, AI recap, and transcript. Select from three options: (1) Everyone, (2) Organizer and co-organizers, or (3) Specific people. 

Everyone : Anyone with the meeting link/or invited into the meeting can access. 

Organizer and co-organizers : Only the people who organized the meeting can access. 

Specific people : In addition to the organizer(s), you can choose specific individuals who can access everything related to the meeting. 

By default, access is set to Everyone , but you can change this before the meeting starts. If you or another organizer changes this meeting option during the meeting, you will need to end and restart the meeting for the change to take effect. 

Note:  Copilot will not be available to meeting attendees excluded from access to the recording or transcript, even if Allow Copilot is set to “During the meeting”.

To customize access to your meeting’s recording or transcript: 

Go to Meeting options from any of the meeting option entry points .

Tip:  Meeting options will open in a new window on your default browser. For the best experience, use Edge to open all meeting options. 

Select Recording & transcript from the options on the left.

Select an option from the dropdown next to Who has access to the recording or transcript .

This meeting option is only available with a Copilot license. Those with Teams Premium will be able to customize this soon.

Customizing access to meeting recordings or transcripts is not available for channel meetings or ad hoc meetings. 

This meeting option only applies to recordings, transcripts, AI recaps, and transcript-based Copilot access. If you or someone else changes the permissions through SharePoint, sensitivity labels, or other methods or if you share the link to the meeting recording, the original meeting option setting will not apply.

This meeting option will be available to organizers and co-organizers if the recording storage policy directs recordings to the organizer’s OneDrive for Business (ODB). If set to store in the participant’s OneDrive, this meeting option will not appear.

This meeting option can be changed by the meeting organizer on the following platforms: Desktop (Windows and Mac), Mobile (iOS and Android).

Third party apps will continue to have access and are not restricted by this new meeting option. The meeting organizer can manage third party app access to the meeting.
