Snap and Microsoft have announced the integration of Snapchat Lenses for Teams, bringing a new level of fun and creativity to virtual meetings.
Teams users now have access to a collection of 26 popular Lenses during meetings, allowing them to transform themselves into cartoon characters or add fun backgrounds to their videos. The integration aims to make virtual meetings more engaging and enjoyable for everyone.
With this feature, you don't need to download anything, as you can access the Lenses by clicking on "Video effects" and selecting the "Snapchat" tab. This integration is made possible by Camera Kit, Snap’s SDK that allows partners to leverage Snap’s AR technology in their own applications and websites.

It’s worth noting that this is Microsoft’s second integration with Camera Kit, and we can expect to see more Snapchat Lenses in popular apps and platforms in the future.
So, let’s get ready to add some fun and personality to our virtual meetings with Snapchat Lenses!
