Microsoft finally fixes these Teams issues

If there’s one thing guaranteed to test your patience during a busy workday, it’s a messaging app that doesn’t behave the way you expect it to. 

For a tool that millions of us rely on every day, Microsoft Teams does an impressive job of keeping businesses connected and conversations flowing.

But for many fans, a couple of small-but-maddening quirks have been causing frustration for a little too long.

Microsoft has finally heard our cries of despair.

It’s continuing to refine and improve Teams based on real user feedback, and some long-awaited fixes are finally on the way.

One of the biggest updates is a simple but powerful change. You’ll soon be able to choose what the Enter key does. 

We’ve all sent a half-formed message by hitting Enter to start a new paragraph. It’s a reflex.

But now instead of automatically sending your message, you’ll have the option to use Enter for a new line. 

Another welcome improvement is arriving too. Forwarding multiple messages at once. 

Teams traditionally only lets you forward one message at a time, which makes sharing context clunky and time-consuming. 

But now you’ll be able to select up to five messages from a chat or channel and forward them together in one go.

Both features are rolling out now. 

For businesses that rely on Teams every day, these may sound like small fixes, but they remove friction from hundreds of tiny moments. 

And when messaging is a core part of how your team communicates, those small moments matter.

If you want help getting more from Teams, or making sure your Microsoft 365 setup works the way you want it to, we can help. Get in touch.
