Logged into teams and using it on PC how to stop cell phone notifications
Hi,
If you go to Teams on your mobile/cell, find settings. Scroll down to Block Notifications. The turn on the Block Notifications - When active on desktop. See the video
UncleScotty Teams is a client app on top of Windows (or mac etc), it has no idea how the operating system is connecting to the internet, it has no choice in the matter. It also can not turn on a mobile phones hotspot capability, it can't guess the password used to access that hotspot, and it can't make Windows connect to that hotspot.
None of these are things that Teams can do.
1. We landed a man on the moon in 1969
2. If Teams "can't do any of these things"... it sure did a miraculous job of either LETTING or TELLING my laptop to tap into a nearby cellphone (which has never been used as a hotspot) and draining 2GB of data.
If neither Teams nor Windows can at least ADVISE if not prevent what happened, I suggest the geniuses in ONE of those two departments "get on it"!
