Even though video call tools have helped us connect with loved ones during this time of lockdowns and quarantines, it sometimes feels weird to see all participants in different squares on your screen. Microsoft realized that too and so introduced something called Together Mode to its Teams video calling app. With the power of AI, this mode is able to place all participants in a call inside a shared background. Now they’re bringing this unique feature to their other communications app, Skype.
You may find Together Mode to be weird, creepy, cute, or just a unique way to take on video calls if you’re tired of all the squares and grids that are keeping you apart. When you turn this mode on, it will remove the background elements from each of your feed and the AI-powered tool then brings you all together in a shared background. They say the arrangement is more “natural” compared to the normal video feed windows that we see.

Microsoft has announced that it has added the Together Mode option that debuted in Teams to Skype. According to a report from zdnet.com, in the latest Skype version (Skype 8.67), Together Mode is one of a handful of new features available to various versions of Skype. Together Mode is a viewing option that makes it appear as if all meeting participants are located in the same physically shared space instead of via a traditional grid view. As per the reports, Microsoft officials have said they believe Together Mode will help alleviate virtual-meeting fatigue and make meetings feel more real. Other new features in Skype 8.67 include the addition of Large Grid Mode, enabling users to see everyone s video stream simultaneously; an option to add someone to an ongoing Skype call using their phone number, as well as via Skype; more predefined backgrounds and categories and more.
