Microsoft Teams mobile app users around the world can now look forward to a fix they need. This fix has to do with how users of this mobile app join online meetings directly from their smartphones. Over the past few years, these users have had to endure the pain of joining online meetings in a rather complicated manner.

On mobile devices, users of Microsoft Teams had to endure joining through so many processes before joining a meeting. Unlike the experience on a Windows laptop or desktop, the Teams mobile app is no fun to use during meetings. The entire process on the mobile app is cumbersome and very tiring for most users.
