Microsoft Teams is a great tool for online video meetings, especially during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Sometimes, you need your camera on - but someone is standing close by, your room is a mess, or you just don't want others to see your house. In such situations, you can use a virtual background to help hide your surroundings. Read this wikiHow to learn how to do this.
[Edit]Steps
- Join your meeting with your camera off. There's an option to switch your camera on as you join the meeting, but if there is a glitch, the virtual background might take some time to show up, which can reveal your surroundings. It's better to join the meeting first before turning your video on.
- Click . On the panel that's on top of your Microsoft Teams tab, you'll find three dots next to the "Raise your hand/Reactions" option. Click the dots. It will open a dropdown menu.
- Click on "Apply background effects". This will open a sub-page at the side of your meeting tab.
- Click the background that you'd like to use. Teams will have a few default backgrounds. Take a look at your options and choose the one that you'd like.
- Click on . Preview your video to make sure the background is the right one. Others in the meeting won't be able to see what you've previewed.
- Turn your video on. Make sure that you've clicked "Apply and turn on video" as your background will not be seen if you just click on the camera icon.
