This update simplifies how users move between sections and improves discoverability, while keeping all existing functionality intact.

Who is affected:
- All users who access Viva Connections in the Microsoft Teams mobile app (iOS and Android).
What will happen:
- The Teams mobile Viva Connections experience will move from a three-tab layout (Dashboard, News, Resources) to a pill-based navigation model.
- Users will switch between Viva Connections sections using pill-shaped navigation controls at the top of the experience:
- In the News experience:
- The Unread and Saved for later pills will be replaced with:
- An Unread toggle
- A Saved for later button
- The Unread and Saved for later pills will be replaced with:
