Organizers can select up to six languages for attendees to choose from for live translated captions during a town hall
Event organizers now have more control over the live-translated captions displayed during a town hall. With this update, organizers can select up to 6 languages out of a list of 40+ languages to be displayed as captions for attendees. This is a significant improvement since previously the attendees were the only ones who could select a pre-defined list of translated languages for captions. The rollout for this update is expected to occur in early to late February 2024, with targeted and standard releases. There is no action required to prepare for this change; however, users should be notified, and relevant documentation updated.
This update is associated with the Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 371308 and was reported on M365 Admin.
