What is New in Microsoft Teams for April 2026

Our team just wrapped up the M365 Community Conference in Orlando, FL, and it was an incredible way to close out April! Our teams were energized by connecting with, listening to, and sharing what’s new with many of you: the builders, innovators and icons of intelligent work. Thank you to everyone who attended, and we can’t wait to see even more of you at next year’s conference!

As for this month’s Teams updates, we remain focused on bringing you features that can make collaboration more intelligent, secure, and seamless—whether you’re working with AI, managing calls, or enabling hybrid teams at scale.

Across meetings, calling, and the workplace, you’ll find improvements designed to remove friction, from smarter call handling with Copilot call delegation, to Interpreter agent enhancements that support proper attribution for sign-language users in meetings, and updated room booking and live transcription in meetings in Teams Rooms.

In another new update, Targeted messages for agents now enables your agents and bots to send targeted, private, temporary updates to specific users in chats, channels, and meetings, without interrupting everyone else.

We’re also delivering meaningful security and compliance enhancements, including sensitivity label inheritance for meeting recordings and Loop notes, improved admin visibility into external collaboration risks, and new user‑reported security signals in the Teams admin center. These updates help organizations protect information end to end, without slowing down teamwork.

Together, these updates reflect our continued focus on helping teams collaborate more effectively, confidently, and securely—every day. Read on for all the latest updates!
