The news of the week has been Slack purchase by Salesforce, a purchase of nothing more and nothing less than 27.700 million. Exorbitant? Well, seeing what has been seen in this year 2020, the apps that connect us with our work in the end become more and more essential. Today we want to talk about Microsoft Teams, Microsoft's Slack, which is updated to give Apple CarPlay support. Keep reading that we give you all the details ...
Without a doubt the most interesting novelty of this Teams update is the arrival of support for CarPlay. Now Microsoft Teams users can make and receive calls directly from the car. CarPlay will also allow us to use Siri to control the Microsoft Teams app. A novelty that comes with the latest update of the app but that will be progressively activated to all users of the platform. Along with CarPlay comes a small change in the design of the app. Now the call view will try to offer us much more information so that we have everything we need in the same space. We can even record calls that we can share through One Drive and SharePoint.
Another novelty that will arrive in 2021 will be the ppossibility to transfer calls between devices, that is, we can take a call on our iPhone with the Teams app, and then transfer it to our Mac to continue interacting with it from the Mac. An interesting novelty that, added to the Teams support for CarPlay, makes the app Microsoft's messaging app to take into account. We'll see how Teams continues to evolve, I think it is an app that is achieving many things especially thanks to being part of the Microsoft ecosystem and having everything integrated, something like what happens with the Apple ecosystem.
