Summary:
Microsoft Teams will update the Rate My Call feedback to a single-screen thumbs up/down system with problem tokens and comments, rolling out mid-February to late February 2026. This may increase reported poor call rates due to easier reporting, not actual quality decline. Admins should update documentation and monitor telemetry.

Updated January 28, 2026: We have updated the timeline. Thank you for your patience.
[Introduction]
The Rate My Call survey is a feedback screen that the Teams client will occasionally present to users after their Teams call or meeting has completed. Currently, the rating presents 1-5 stars on the first page and a list of potential issues (called problem tokens) on the second page.
We will be rolling out a new streamlined feedback experience for Teams on Windows, Mac, and Web that presents the feedback on a single screen with a thumbs up / thumbs down rating system and problem tokens for the user to select, plus an area to provide details. In testing, we found higher feedback returns with this new design, and clearer insights into call quality issues.

summary for non-techies**
Microsoft Teams is updating its feedback system for call experiences to a single screen where users provide a thumbs up or thumbs down, with options to select specific issues and add comments, replacing the previous star rating and issue selection process.
Direct effects for Operations**
Increased Poor Call Rate Reporting
The new thumbs up/down system may lead to an increase in reported poor call rates due to easier feedback submission, which could mislead admins about actual call quality.
