Large Gallery View option missing on MS Teams OS X

I have a query regarding the Large Gallery view for the meetings we usually schedule on behalf of VP's and presidents. I am on the Mac OS X machine belonging to one of the high ups and she is using MS Teams for Mac OS X 1.4.00.16263 last updated on 30/06/21. The OS X version is Big Sur 11.4. When on a call with the stake holders and his team, there is no option to select Large Gallery view. I looked up the forums and it was mentioned there that enabling "Turn on Meeting experience" will enable Large Gallery view during the meeting. But still with no luck i could not find the option "Turn on Meeting Experience".

Hi

My name is Daniel. I am an independent advisor.

Could you please reset the MS Team app and see how it goes.

Please visit the following article and refer to the section, under the "macOS: Clear Teams Cache" section. https://www.uvm.edu/it/kb/article/clearing-team...

Does the problems still persist?

Upon check, this issue once again apparently "Turn on Meeting Experience" is only available on the older version of MS Team, the current latest version of MS Team doesn't require to enable the "Turn on Meeting Experience" option. The tutorial you have read probably are old tutorials.

May I ask, when you join a meeting then select (...) next to the raising hand icon. Do you see the Together mode feature is being deactivated (see screenshot below)?

If yes then the feature actually has been enabled by default but just has not been activated yet. In order to activate the together mode feature, you need at least 4 participants to join the meeting call.

However, in the near future, you can start the together mode for all meeting sizes as explained in the article: https://www.onmsft.com/news/microsoft-teams-mak...

Thanks Daniel. I talked some sense to my VP about your response and she was ok with whatever feature is enabled. You can archive/Close this.

Experiencing the same issue with Teams on macOS. Guests that attend large meetings do not have the Large gallery option. The screenshot above is from a PC so the options and layout do not match what a Mac user would see.

I have already cleaned the Application Support cache and credentials and restarted Teams and the Mac. Here are the options available on the macOS version of Teams:

I have Teams version 1.4.00.16567 installed which seems to be the latest version for macOS. I have yet to find evidence that Large gallery for guests on macOS is actually a supported option on Teams.

If someone has any links to information on whether or not this option is supported on macOS Teams, please let us know.

Cheers,

Andy
