Look Busy on Microsoft Teams

Microsoft Teams is the default for millions of enterprise workers — and like all video platforms, what's visible behind you on a call matters. Beyond the call itself, Teams also shows your online status to the entire org. We have tools for both: a fake work screen for call backgrounds and an MS Teams status keeper that automatically maintains your Available status.

Teams Status: Always Available

MS Teams marks you as Away or Offline if your mouse hasn't moved recently. Our MS Teams Status Keeper solves this with automated, randomized mouse movements that keep your status permanently green. It runs in a browser window and simulates realistic human interaction patterns — not mechanical repetition that Teams could detect. Set it up once and your status stays Available even during lunch, during meetings, or when you step away.

Background Screens for Teams Video Calls

For Teams video calls, your background screen is visible in the camera frame. The fake Excel dashboard is the most universally professional choice — it reads as financial analysis or data work to any audience. For tech teams, the code editor is a strong pick. For ops and project roles, the Jira board or Gantt chart signals active project work. Run whichever simulator fits your role on a monitor that appears in your camera background.

Teams-Specific Considerations

Teams' video quality is generally good, which means backgrounds are reasonably clear to other attendees. Choose simulators with strong visual contrast and readable structure: the dark code editor, the colorful Jira board, or the chart-heavy Excel dashboard all work well at Teams' video resolution. Avoid simulators with very fine text as primary content — it may blur at lower bitrates. The key is visual presence, not legibility.
