What’s New in Microsoft Teams - Juni 2025

Microsoft continues to enhance the Teams Phone experience with powerful updates that boost productivity, accessibility, and call quality. Here’s a roundup of the latest features released in June 2025 for Teams Phone users, admins, and device managers.


Copilot Now Supports Transferred Calls

AI is taking over the transfer process — in a good way. With Copilot summaries for transferred calls, users can now:

  • Automatically generate a call summary
  • Edit it as needed
  • Send it to the transfer target

This reduces the need for consultative transfers and ensures context is never lost, leading to faster and smoother handoffs.
