Are you feeling overwhelmed by the clutter of chats, channels, and notifications in Microsoft Teams? The good news is that a major update is on the way to simplify your workspace and boost your productivity.
The new update will consolidate everything under the Chat menu, turning it into a central hub for all your essential conversations and notifications. No more hunting through multiple tabs—everything you need will be in one place.
A standout feature of this update is the new “@mentions” view. This section will gather all your direct messages and important mentions in one spot, making it easier to stay on top of messages where you’re tagged. It ensures you never miss crucial notifications again.
Additionally, Teams is introducing enhanced filters and controls. These features will let you prioritize notifications, filter out less important messages, and organize your chats, channels, and meetings by project or topic for a more streamlined workflow.
The update also includes a “favorites” section, allowing you to pin your most important chats and channels for quick and easy access.
And, in mid-2025, Teams will introduce threaded conversations. This means replies will be grouped in a single thread, making it easier to follow discussions and avoid losing track of important messages.
These updates will be available across desktop, Android, and iOS, ensuring your team stays connected and organized no matter where they are.
