- Microsoft Teams on the web will soon support custom backgrounds.
- Custom backgrounds are a popular feature on the desktop and mobile versions of Teams.
- Support for custom backgrounds could come to Teams on the web as soon as September 2021.
Just like on other devices, you'll be able to use the feature to blur out your background within Teams calls and meetings or to replace your background with an image.
Here's Microsoft's description of the feature:
When you use Teams on the web, you can either blur your background or replace it entirely with the images provided in your video meeting or call. Note: Blurring or replacing your background might not prevent sensitive information from being visible to other people in the call or meeting.
If you haven't used the option on Teams before, make sure to check out our guide on how to use custom backgrounds on Microsoft Teams.
