Together mode is one of the feature of new meeting experience in Teams app. The together mode uses AI segmentation technology to digitally place participants in a shared background. This makes you feel like you’re sitting in the same room with everyone else in the meeting or class as shown in image above. Below is the difference between the normal meeting experience and together mode meeting experience.

As of now, it is available for the desktop version only but will be extended to the Android/iOS Teams application soon mentioned by Microsoft Teams. As seen in the picture above, the Together Mode feature will be launched with an auditorium view.

Microsoft states that the gallery view can fit up to 49 users max at present.
In addition - Dynamic View, Large gallery view, Live reactions, video filters are also features of new meeting experience
Advantages of Together Mode
The primary benefit of Together Mode in Microsoft Teams is being able to see all the members of the meeting together as if they are one room or class and sitting together. It can discard the old classic video call feature where you can see one people at a time with a boxed view which nullifies to see just a restricted number of people at a time is eased. When you make a normal Teams video conference, the person who is talking frequently appears on the meeting screen with the boxed view. The rest of the persons in the meeting are in the background and are virtually ignored until they start talking in the meeting. This new feature ‘Together Mode’ acknowledges this issue. You can easily view all the people present on the call as well as read their body language and reactions during the meeting, just like we do can in physically with ease of our homes. Also this advantage is otherwise very difficult in their home environments or different backgrounds.
