Microsoft Teams has emerged as a leading platform for online communication and collaboration, particularly within corporate settings. While users continue to express the desire for additional features, Microsoft consistently addresses these needs through regular updates. Recently, the company released a comprehensive summary detailing the enhancements made to Teams in June 2025.
Enhancements in Chat and Collaboration
This month saw significant improvements in the chat and collaboration functionalities. Notably, an upgraded spellchecker now supports up to three languages and allows users to add personalized corrections to their dictionaries. Additionally, the new chat and channels interface is being introduced for Government Community Cloud (GCC) users, further refining the user experience.
Advancements in Meetings and Webinars
Improvements have also been made to the meetings, webinars, and town hall functionalities. Loop-powered meeting notes are now accessible for those using GCC-High and Department of Defense (DoD) services. Furthermore, individuals not using Teams can join town hall meetings via Cloud Video Interoperability (CVI) join codes, while participants can use sign-in options like PSTN to access webinars. Organizers now enjoy increased control over presentations; they can choose participants to manage screen sharing and broadcast notifications efficiently. Additionally, town hall usage reports are now available in the Teams Admin Center, providing valuable insights for organizers.
