Update…Per Microsoft’s instructions, disabled all tracking protections in Safari and requested desktop mode and it works. Their instructions say turn protections back on after using teams… 😐
Funny enough it works in Safari and not Edge…tho that may be Apple’s fault since all browsers are somewhat just versions of Safari, last I heard…
They don’t even let you log in if your browser is set to block third party cookies. Fuck Microsoft.
There is a setting in office 365 that won’t allow non-company assets to log in. It got me too.
Yeah that setting does it’a job, I get rejected if I try to use a teams app. But it works on the web for whatever reason.
In Microsoft’s defense I phones don’t have proper web browsers. They are all the same under the hood
Yeah, this might be it. For anyone not aware, every browser on iOS is just safari with a different skin and some plugins to work with whatever ecosystem you actually are trying to use.

I work in the tech support field and Microsoft is making me want to quit and find a work that doesn’t involve using Teams. I’ve never liked them very much and been a Linux user for over 20 years, but I still have to deal with them for work. However they’re becoming increasingly difficult to tolerate.
They really really want Windows users to have a Microsoft account. I avoid that and prefer local accounts. But Microsoft likes to link my local account with my Microsoft account anyway, because I need to give it to them to play Minecraft on Windows. So now even if I didn’t want to, my Windows account is showing the picture of my Microsoft/Windows Gaming account profile because I must have passed over a box to uncheck somewhere while logging into Windows Gaming to play Minecraft… mildly infuriating Microsoft.
I used a personal laptop for work a few times and accidentally connected my OneDrive to my corporate account. Again, I must have misunderstood the configuration and login process because it synced (more like moved) all my personal files on my work’s OneDrive. Mildly infuriating Microsoft.
Same personal laptop used for work sometimes. I use Edge specifically to separate work from personal browsing and somehow, again, I logged in somewhere with my work account and it synced all my personal browsing history and saved passwords from a different browser, into my “Edge for business” online thigny. So when I was using Edge at work, on my work computer, it was suggesting me logins and passwords from my personal browser that I use on different computers. Mildly infuriating Microsoft.
Teams, OneDrive, Edge for business, their subscription model, forcing Microsoft accounts… individually they are mildly infuriating but combined together, let’s say it’s a powerful generator of rolling eyes.
Teams, when used within a single Org, works great. For 3rd party interaction, or working for multiple Orgs I would highly recommend almost any other product.
The intra-org integration with SharePoint and document management/data retention is very good.
But nonsense like what OP is experiencing is why even I, as the senior MS Support SysAdmin at my employer, refuse to use Microsoft Office products on my personal Android phone.
If they want/need me to do that, they can give me a dedicated phone just for that purpose. MS MAM is never touching my personal equipment in a million years.
OP is stuck between a rock and a crap place.
Lemmy has a serious boner for hating on Microsoft.
We were told that Teams was the bees knees and it would massively enhance collaboration and productivity due to its fantastic integration.
Well, let me tell you that my disappointment was immeasurable.
It is so slow, so inflexible, so unpolished. I despise it for anything other than a quick chat.
On my work computer Teams is consistently the biggest memory hog even when I’m not in a meeting or actively using it.

I just dont understand how any company can use a product as broken as teams.
Which alternative do you propose?
Literally anything else except for zoom and teams.
I dont have issues with zoom. Its the least bad of all the VC services.
Zoom requires the zoom app and has lots of security holes
Ok. At least it works. I can’t say that for MS.
Literally anything else is a better option. Slack + zoom is orders of magnitude better.
