If you want to blur your background on Microsoft Teams, it’s a simple process that you can do either before joining a meeting or during the meeting itself. Blurring your background helps maintain privacy or minimize distractions while you're on a video call.
To blur your background before joining a meeting, open the Microsoft Teams app and select the meeting you want to join. Click the "Join" button. Before confirming your entry into the meeting, ensure your camera is enabled. Look for the "Background filters" option on the pre-join screen, usually on the right-hand side or bottom of the window. Click "Background filters," and a menu of background effects will appear. Choose the "Blur" option, typically located at the top of the list. After selecting blur, your background will become softly blurred, keeping you in focus while obscuring everything behind you. Click "Join" to enter the meeting with the blurred background.
If you’ve already joined a meeting, you can still enable background blur. Click on the "More" (three dots) menu in the meeting toolbar, select "Apply background effects," and then choose the "Blur" option from the list. Once applied, your background will instantly blur.
These steps ensure you can blur your background in Microsoft Teams at any time, enhancing privacy and professionalism. If you have further questions, feel free to leave them in the comments.
