Joining MS teams meeting with two devices and sharing screen from one device
Wilhelm_Fischer Hey, having the same issue, worked up until yesterday. Was able to share from iPad and see on my iMac, now just shows the "person" icon in the center of the screen. As you described everyone else sees the iPad screen except me. There was an update to the Team App, that changed how you share/broadcast your screen, but that did not fix the issue.

dginsburg alexmbraden I am able to join a meeting from an iPad using the same account on the desktop app and see the shared screen content from the iPad on both the screen for my student account (web app) and in my desktop app meeting as myself. Here is a screenshot of my desktop app with the content showing from the OneNote app on the iPad on my desktop app (Dell laptop). Video along the bottom is the video from my Test Student account running in the web app (in Google Chrome) with the camera on and the profile picture is for my account as joined on the desktop app of that machine.
Here is the student view in the browser:The issue that I have noticed is the first time in the meeting that you try to share the iPad screen in this set-up, it doesn't work. Once you click 'Start Broadcast' on the iPad, a spinning wheel will appear beside Microsoft Teams and will spin endlessly. However, if you stop the broadcast and Start screen sharing again it will work. This is an annoying quirk, which may be attribute to iOS or the Teams app (I'm not sure), but you can still get it to work.
