To keep your dashboard organized, you can hide any Teams tiles you don’t actively use. Hidden tiles remain accessible, just scroll to the hidden section to find them, and unhide at any time. Hiding a team or channel can help reduce clutter and make it easier to focus on what you use most.  

> ℹ️ **Note: **Hiding a Team or channel does not remove your access or notifications, they will still appear if you’re mentioned.
