Better Teams is a Chrome Extension that supercharges your Microsoft Teams experience! Whether you're sharing media, reacting to a call, or avoiding notification pop-ups, Better Teams has your back. Seamlessly embed media, improve usability, and enjoy a more polished Teams interface.
Move reaction buttons out of the popup menu and onto the call action bar. This helps you avoid the dreaded “Raise Hand” mistake when all you wanted to do was react with a 👍 or 👏.
Reactions are now away from "raise hand":
Notifications are relocated so they won’t block any critical buttons or text fields, ensuring you always have a clear view of what matters.
Share Spotify links, and Better Teams will embed a playable media player directly in your chat. No need to leave the conversation to jam to your favorite tunes!
Songs, playlists and artists links are supported.
Sharing a song in a channel:
Sharing a playlist in a chat:
Share YouTube videos or Shorts, and they’ll play right within the chat. No more navigating away from your conversation to watch videos.
