Updates from Microsoft
This includes some previously-announced features, like tabs in
the Windows 11 File Explorer (which aren’t actually
available yet), as well as new AI-powered
calling features that are also on the way, like
automatic framing and voice focus. There’s more in tow this month, though.
Starting with accessibility, Microsoft has rolled out new
notification controls in Teams in a bid to help users reduce distractions at
work. You can now mute notifications during meetings, for example. Other Teams
features meant to help users focus include the ability to hide your own video
feed, change chat density settings, and more. Microsoft has also rolled out new
text prediction and voice control features across a few of its apps to improve
accessibility even further. Viva Insights also has a new focus mode to help
users stay focused at work.
