Get started with panels in Microsoft Teams

Find your meeting

If you’re on your way to a scheduled meeting, the Teams panel will let you know if you’re in the right place. The current meeting’s name, time, and organizer appear on the right side of the screen.

If you're early, just check the scrollable list to see the upcoming meetings.

Find a free room

If you’re looking for a spot to have an ad hoc meeting, the panel will tell you if the room is available now. A green bar means the room is free.

To claim the available room for your meeting, tap Reserve, choose an end time, and tap Reserve.

Once you've reserved the room, a Teams meeting is automatically created. 

Release a room

If your meeting ends early and you’d like to release the room for others to use, just tap Manage > Check out > Check out.

Extend your room reservation

If you need to use the room longer than anticipated, and it’s available after your original meeting end time, you can extend your reservation. To extend your room reservation: 

1. Tap Manage.

   

2. Tap Extend room reservation.

   

3. Choose a new time then tap Reserve.

   

Accessibility and other options

To report an issue with the device, tap Settings   in the lower-right corner of the panel.

To set accessibility options or reboot the panel, tap Device settings   on the Settings screen.
