Microsoft Teams isn’t a social messaging app. You can, technically, use the free version of Microsoft Teams to add friends and family and chat with them but adding everyone is tedious and the app is not structured for social conversations. It centers itself around topic-based discussions, even within a channel. Microsoft Teams may not be for social messaging but it does borrow some features from social messaging platforms. For example, you can send emoji, reactions, and GIFs in response to a message. Another, less important but equally useful little feature in Microsoft Teams is the profile picture.Microsoft Teams will, generally use the same image as your profile picture that you’ve set for the Microsoft account you’re using to sign in to Teams. If you don’t want to use the same picture or if you’re using a different account to sign in to Microsoft Teams, you can change the profile picture.Change Microsoft Teams profile pictureTo change the Microsoft Teams profile picture, follow these steps.
