This article discusses cumulative improvements in Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows and Android devices.
There are two types of updates for Teams Rooms: Teams Rooms app updates and Teams Web client.
For information about Teams Rooms app updates, select the Teams Rooms on Windows or Teams Rooms on Android tabs.
Teams Web client updates happen via the Teams web app delivery services. The Teams web client is a cloud-based service that doesn't require an update to the local UWP application installed on the device.
Teams Rooms on Windows feature introduction and issue resolution
Teams Rooms app updates happen either using the Microsoft Store or using manual update. Updates are applied to the Universal Windows Platform (UWP) application that is installed locally on the device.
Features with the
icon are available only with Teams Rooms Pro license.
5.2.115.0 (9/26/2024)
Note
The following two features were added to the 5.2.115.0 release with a service side change on January 22, 2025.
Multiple camera view: Teams Rooms on Windows supports up to four single stream cameras that will be shown to remote meeting participants. With multiple camera view, remote meeting participants will have the ability to follow all the action in the room and manually toggle between views from the room that they want to see. Learn more.
Start/stop recording: Users can start or stop recording directly from Teams Rooms on Windows devices without having to join the meeting on a companion device. IT admins can allow or prevent users (including resource accounts) from recording meetings using the meeting recording policy on the Teams admin center. When users start recording a Meet now or Whiteboard session initiated from a Teams Rooms device, users must ensure that they invite themselves to the meeting so that they can access the recording file through the meeting chat on their Teams desktop or mobile app after the meeting. To ensure that IT-managed resource accounts do not become owners of the recording files, avoid assigning any Microsoft OneDrive for Business license to your resource accounts. Learn more.
Note
The following two features were added to the 5.2.115.0 release with a service side change on October 31, 2024.
Digital signage
: Inform, connect, and engage your employees with digital signage. Users can view dynamic content and relevant information on front-of-room displays when devices aren't in use. Admins can configure tenant-wide and room-specific settings from the Teams Rooms Pro Management portal. Native integrations with selected third-party digital signage providers (Appspace, XOGO) are available, along with the use of web URLs as signage sources. Learn more.
Enhanced cross-platform meetings using SIP join: Collaboration is seamless and intuitive across all meeting platforms, providing a native Teams Room experience when joining SIP-based conferencing services like Google Meet, Zoom, Cisco Webex, Amazon Chime, RingCentral, and others. Users enjoy the familiar Teams Rooms interface with access to certain third-party in-meeting controls, depending on the platform. Features include up to 1080p video quality, dual screen support, various meeting layouts, and HDMI ingest. This capability requires a SIP calling plan from a Cloud Video Interop (CVI) partner, currently available through Pexip. Learn more.
Introduced in this update:
Proximity based join experience improvements: Proximity based join experience is updated to disable auto accepting all nudges from external or federated tenants. In addition, Teams Rooms on Windows with compatible consoles support proximity join using ultrasound, providing an alternative to Bluetooth. Learn more.
Dynamic video tile resizing based on people count: The room video tile on Teams desktop client dynamically adjusts size based on the number of people in the room. When one person is in the room, the tile matches the remote participant's size. With two or more people, the room tile expands to be four times larger. Room admins can enable or disable the people count. Learn more.
Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows room preview shows Cloud IntelliFrame: The Preview video of room shows IntelliFrame when Cloud IntelliFrame is enabled for the room, to let in room participants be aware of how they appear to those online. Learn more.
Roster grouping for in-room participants through proximity join: When joining a meeting in a Microsoft Teams Room with a companion device, in-room participants are grouped under the room node. Participants must join through Proximity Join with Microsoft Teams Rooms. Learn more.
Native controls for Group Framing, Active Speaker and Edge-composed IntelliFrame: Allow users to natively toggle certain camera features provided by OEMs, including group framing, active speaker framing, and edge-composed IntelliFrame. Learn more.
Note
The camera's OEM firmware is required.
Breakout rooms support: With breakout room support, Teams Rooms on Windows can be added to a breakout room as an attendee and moved in and out of the main room making it easy for breakout session coordination. Learn more.

This release is available for all Teams environments, however, GCC-High customers with this version installed won't see any of the below mentioned new features.
Introduced in this update:
New Teams on Teams Rooms - This update brings the New Teams available on Teams Desktop to Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows. With the new Teams app now a part of Teams Rooms on Windows, all Teams Rooms devices can now utilize available resources to optimize room experience and rendering intelligent audio and video more reliably. The New Teams app has parity of experiences, and in addition all new Teams rooms experiences are built on new Teams app.
Zero Touch Deployment with Windows Autopilot and Pro Management Portal

Ability to change language on Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows. With this new feature, end users can change the language of the Microsoft Teams Rooms on the Microsoft Windows app. The language choices offered are the same as those that are offered in the Microsoft Teams desktop app. The language is reverted to the default language when it restarts. To enable this, you need to set the Room language setting to 'True'. To learn more, see Teams Rooms XML configuration.
Skype for business deprecation. With the release of app 4.19.57.0, we announced the end of support for Skype for Business (Server and Online) on Microsoft Teams Rooms. With this update, we have retired the XML settings for SfB and ability to sign in or support to Skype for Business meetings.
Meeting Chat shown by default in Gallery View for Teams Rooms on Windows. Meeting Chat is now shown by default when joining a Teams meeting with Teams Rooms on Windows in Gallery View, making it easier to see incoming chat messages on the front of room display. Admins can configure the default chat experience for a room, and users can make in-meeting changes to show or hide the chat using the touch console.
Join meetings with a QR code. Users can quickly join upcoming meetings by scanning a QR code on the Teams Room home screen using a mobile camera. Users will then enter the room companion mode experience on Teams mobile and the full meeting experience on Teams Rooms. Users can also scan the QR code to start an ad-hoc meeting or cast content from mobile to the front-of-room display. If the user doesn't have the Teams mobile app, they'll be directed to download it after scanning the QR code. Cross-tenant meetings are supported when the organization setting and user policies allow it. IT admins can control the feature from the XML settings or the Teams admin center. Learn more.
4K display UI scaling for Teams Rooms on Windows. 4K-enabled displays, including front of room displays and touch boards, are natively supported on the Teams Rooms experience. Note: 4K video isn't supported.
Improvements to Join with an ID. Teams meetings continue to be the default option while the option to select joining Zoom meetings with an ID, and others to come, is visually clearer.
Meeting ID and passcode to join on Teams Rooms on Windows. Admins can configure and require a meeting ID and passcode to join a meeting on Teams Rooms on Windows to ensure one more level of security and privacy. This feature is available with Teams Rooms Pro license.
End users can switch IntelliFrame on or off using Stage roster.
Intelligent Speakers for All Rooms and Devices: With this update, users can now enjoy enhanced productivity in any meeting space, regardless of the type of mic connected to Teams Room. Support to identify who said what during meetings, providing live attributed transcriptions. This helps Microsoft Copilot and AI notes to keep track of important information. This feature is now in public preview on Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows.
Integration between Report a Problem and Pro Portal Management: Admins can configure for easier tracking, via SendFeedbackToPMP XML setting, that when a user sends feedback through Report a Problem from a room with a Microsoft Teams Pro license, each feedback creates an event in the Teams Rooms Pro Management portal.

Support for Skype for Business and Skype for Business + Microsoft Teams as meeting modes are no longer available, and settings that were required for this set up are removed. The legacy home screen experience is also no longer officially supported. Learn more at End of support for connecting to Skype for Business server in Microsoft Teams Rooms on Windows.
Touch board form factor support. Teams Rooms on Windows now support certified Touch board form factors like Surface Hub 3. Touch boards run Teams rooms touch experience on single screen. Portrait mode/Rotation on Surface Hub 3 is in preview with more optimizations to follow.
One time passcode (OTP) based setup
. One-time passcode (OTP) provides a new and simplified way to set up Teams Room on Windows. During the first-time setup experience, the installer is presented with an option to enter a One-time passcode instead of resource account credentials, eliminating the need to share room account passwords. OTP is then used to automatically fetch the resource account credentials and sign into Teams Rooms. Teams room admins can provision the OTP from the Teams Rooms Pro Management Portal.
Front Row Enhancement - Active video speaker promotion. Front Row now promotes pinned or spotlighted participants to the center stage when there's no shared content in the single and dual display mode to make the most of empty space. For single display mode, when no one is pinned, spotlighted, or sharing content, the most recent active speaker video is promoted to the center. In dual display mode, when no one is pinned, spotlighted, or sharing content, the two most recent active speaker videos are promoted to the center on each screen. If someone is sharing content, the most recent active video speaker is promoted on the right screen.
Support Joining a Teams Live Event as an Attendee. To join a live event as an attendee and watch the streaming experience, follow the instructions on Attend a live event in Microsoft Teams.
Teams Room on Windows content camera enhancements. Teams rooms on Windows support content cameras that are certified by Microsoft to share analog Whiteboard in rooms. Customers now have the choice to connect any Teams certified or any other camera as a content camera on Teams Rooms on Windows to allow ease of use.
Microsoft cannot guarantee that cloud enhancement filters work consistently on content camera not certified by Microsoft, so customers must validate the experience before rolling it out.
4.18.44.0 (9/20/2023)
This update resolves a problem that prevents the room display resolution and scaling setting (configured using XML) from working on version 4.18.35.0 when sometimes Windows resets it to the default display settings.
4.18.35.0 (8/21/2023)
Introduced in this update:
Cloud IntelliFrame
. Cloud IntelliFrame makes non-AI cameras smarter. With Cloud IntelliFrame, participants in the room appear similar to remote attendees, creating an immersive and engaging experience for everyone. Whether working from home or in the office, participants are able to see every facial expression and cue, as if they were there in person.
Intelligent camera support
. IntelliFrame enables multi-stream video, face recognition of in-room participants, active speaker recognition, attributed voice-based transcription, and panoramic video on front-of-room (180-degree view) and center-of-room (360-degree view) cameras, taking Teams Rooms on Windows cameras to the next level of intelligence.
Front Row gallery improvement – video segmentation with a unified background1
. It removes individual backgrounds, adjusts video participant’s size, and applies a unified background for remote participants to make them appear as if they are in the same room. This reduces distractions and provides in-room meeting participants with better connection to remote participants in Teams meetings.
Spatial audio in the Front Row experience2
. Spatial Audio brings next-generation audio to the Front Row experience when connected to stereo speakers. This intelligent audio technology delivers a more natural and inclusive experience for in-room participants by playing audio from channel closer to physical location of remote participants on Front row layout, making it feel like remote people are in the room with them and reducing meeting fatigue.

Dual display mode and swap screens admin controls1
. IT admins can deliberately configure Teams Rooms on Android devices to run in dual display mode. Admins can also switch the screens of dual display rooms using the swap screens setting, easily correcting front-of-room displays that were set up inverted. Both controls are accessible from the device settings and Teams Admin Center.
Note
If you are deploying Teams Rooms on Android devices with dual displays, be aware that dual display mode must be explicitly enabled in the configuration profile. By default, the dual display setting is disabled, which means that using an existing configuration profile (designed for single-display devices by default) may inadvertently disable dual display mode for your existing dual display rooms. To avoid this, you must create and maintain a separate configuration profile for any devices that require dual display support. Learn more.
3x3 video gallery on dual displays2
. Dual display rooms can now show up to 18 participant videos (3x3 on each screen) when no content is being shared during meetings.

Whiteboard enhancements. When using the whiteboard outside of meetings, your content is retained even when a meeting begins. The whiteboard's contents are preserved and shared with remote participants instantly. You can also use the 'Follow me' function to guide participants as you navigate, and collaborative cursors let you see everyone working in real-time.
Net Promoter Score (NPS) survey. Users can rate how likely they are to recommend Microsoft Teams Rooms from 1 to 5 and provide additional comments on NPS surveys delivered on Teams Rooms on Android devices. NPS surveys will show up periodically after meetings end. IT admins can manage policies and allow or prevent room accounts from getting NPS surveys using PowerShell. Learn more.
Admin email support for Report a problem. IT admins can designate an email address for receiving 'Report a problem' submissions from Teams Rooms on Android devices. The email address can be set from the device settings.
1 The swap screens setting will only be available on devices with the proper firmware support. If you don’t see the setting on your device, contact the device manufacturer for firmware support timelines. 2 Due to device capability requirements and performance implications, 3x3 video gallery support for dual displays is available on the following Teams Rooms on Android devices: Yealink MeetingBar A40, Poly Studio X52, and Poly Studio G62.
