Summary:
Microsoft Teams is introducing customizable notification locations with options for bottom right, top right, bottom left, or top left of the screen, starting mid-January 2025 for Targeted Release and late January 2025 for General Availability. This feature will be enabled by default. No admin action is required before rollout.
Details:
Microsoft Teams will soon allow users to personalize the placement of notifications on their screens. Users will be able to choose from four options: bottom right, top right, bottom left, or top left-to make notifications more convenient and less disruptive, enhancing both focus and productivity. This message applies to Teams for Windows desktop.
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 469491.
