Notes: Live captions are a preview feature in Microsoft Teams, and they're only available in English (US) and on the Teams desktop app for now. Enjoy your sneak peek! Live captions can make your meeting more inclusive to participants who are deaf or hard-of-hearing, people with different levels of language proficiency, and participants in loud places by giving them another way to follow along. Note: Teams doesn't save captions. Turn captions on and off To use live captions in a meeting, go to your meeting controls and select More options ... > Turn on live captions (preview). To stop using live captions, go to the meeting controls and select More options ... > Turn on live captions (preview). Get the most out of your captions To make sure your live captions are as accurate as possible, try to follow these best practices: Speak clearly, slowly, and directly into the mic. As your distance from the mic increases, captions may become less accurate. Avoid locations with background noise. Avoid having multiple people speak at the same time. Use the highest-quality Teams-certified equipment available to you. Notes: If someone is speaking with an accent, captions may be less accurate. Obscenities will be starred out. Teams may use a meeting's subject, invitation, participant names, and attachments to improve caption accuracy.
