AI Image Search
New Feature
Search
Local Processing
Image Gallery 1.1.9 adds AI Image Search to help users find visual information inside Teams without remembering who sent an image or when it appeared. This release focuses on local OCR and tagging so screenshots, whiteboards, labels, dashboard captures, and other image-heavy conversations become easier to search.
OCR
Added on-device OCR so text inside images can become searchable, including text from screenshots, captured error messages, whiteboards, and other text-heavy visuals.
Tagging
Added local image tagging signals that help Image Gallery surface relevant images when users search for visual context.
Search
Added AI-powered image search so users can find images by the text and context detected inside them, instead of relying only on message metadata.
