Microsoft Teams: Interpreter - Simultaneous mode enhancements

Microsoft 365 Message Center Archive by Merill Fernando

Summary

We’re raising the bar on clarity and control with Interpreter. Admins can fully disable voice simulation via PowerShell when needed. Each speaker is automatically assigned a distinct voice, making multi-speaker conversations easier to follow. We’re reducing distractions by showing shimmer effects only to Interpreter users. We’ve added audio notifications to confirm activation, and we’ve introduced in-product feedback mechanisms so users can easily share their input.
