How to pin and change video frames in Microsoft Teams

During a Teams video call, you can pin or resize an individual's frame to focus more on the important person.

Microsoft Teams has added many improvements to the video chat feature at a time when remote work is becoming a new way of working. During a Teams video call, you can pin or resize an individual's frame to focus more on the important person.

Unlike competitors Zoom and Google Meet, which feature video layout in calls, Microsoft Teams focuses primarily on the professional communication features for organizations and businesses. Seeing the faces of all members in a call is an enjoyable experience, but that doesn't really work. So, it's easy to understand that you just want to pin a speaker's video.
