Together mode will get a new simplified flow which will take the user from the beginning to the end through the steps of setting up the scene, assigning the seats and applying for everyone in the call in a transparent and easy-to-understand way.

When this will happen:

Targeted Release: We will begin rolling out mid-February 2025 and expect to complete by early March 2025.

General Availability (Worldwide, GCC, GCC High, DoD): We will begin rolling out early March 2025 and expect to complete by mid-March 2025.

How this will affect your organization:

With the improved experience, the function itself does not change but there will be more transparency thanks to the icons on the meeting toolbar for an easy access for each next step in the familiar Together mode flow.

You may consider updating your training and documentation as appropriate.
