How to Add Custom Virtual Background in Microsoft Teams

Great explanation if you are yet to see a computer in RL. Microsoft is fun.

The background keeps getting flipped any tips?

what if I do not get the add new option

It was right in my face all along. Lol

hi Kevin. the option is NO longer available. Can you give an UPdate ??????????? where did the option Go?????

In my teams I do not have three options on the bottom of screen

Hi, the add new is not available on my Teams! how can I add an image?

Hi Kevin can you help me pls I don't have that add new at the the top

Is there a reason why none of these options are showing for me i cannot add or the preset ones are not there

Hello Kevin, while this advice is appreciated i've run into a problem; the ''add new button'' dosen't show up for me. Why is this?

Thank you. You made it very easy.

Kevin, i can not see the "background'icon !
Where i can get it

I don't have this feature why is that? I updated the app as well

Thank you. This tutorial was really helpful.

Doesnt work on teams app on ios

Is it possible in android, how to do this in android

This option is not there

Typical Microsoft. Cannot get it right. It flips your backgrounds so you cannot have writing on it and and has no green screen option. It’s so far behind Zoom. Microsoft is still in the 1990s.

I received a team invite from my supplier and I dont use office365 or MS teams . It has a link to a web browser . How do you change the virtual background ? The only options in the web link is MS teams Video and Audio toggle button and a custom setting ( no option to virtual background) . DO you have to signup to MS Teams and install the Apps to use Virtual background ? I have a skype for home account? with MS . If is sign up to MS Team with this account , will I loose access to Skype for home ?

How if you dont have the apps

thanks for sharing.....but it is not easy to set up a backgound....thats why i am here......with zoom it was so easy

Any chance to add virtual video background in Team?

Hi! How to change background on Android?

Mine keeps saying could not add background

Kevin can you actually disable the lobby entry sound - I have figured out how to disable the chat notifications to avoid disrupting presentations but we still get the lobby entry sound. If so can you please do a video

I don't see any option of changing background while joining
It just shows about the web cam and microphone

Kindly inform about the version of Teams with background options and the minimum hardware requirements needed to run it. I have an important meeting tomorrow and neither one of my computers is displaying the toggle. Many thanks if you can help me!

if it was iasy you will not gonna do a video about it

ok, I don't see it on my cell via TEAM app, also is it on Chromebook laptops?

Hi there KEVIN . if u have a windows 7 can u show how turn on background plss

Can u do it in tablet?

Thanks for this (Y). If you set up a meeting for a channel, does the organiser need to be present at the meeting, or could it go ahead without them.

Before we don’t know how to use virtual background

i am not able to add a background as it says couldn't add background when I try to

But sometimes it just says (couldn’t add background) whene i try to add a costume one

this kid in my class had his background as minecraft while the teacher went to go check who was knocking at her door..
what a legend

i was doing that on my school and my tecter said nice

It does,nt show for me either :(

send the option of changing background to India, we don't have here.

My teams is updated then also no option is coming neither before joining the meeting nor after joining the meeting.

How did the comments help me more than the video lmao

What are the requirements to add a certain file cause ive been trying to add several different images and they do not work

For those who can't find the background effects option, though ur teams is updated n u don't have a much older version of PC or laptop, I'd like to suggest to change ur DP settings. I had the same problem n when my dad changed some DP settings, the option started showing up! Tell me if it helped u

I click on the image I would like but it will not let me, the format is jpg. Is that a problem?

It does not work

There is no "add new" anymore D:
