- Mar 02, 2021
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
kathheu is your work computer a mac, which has a feature called Continuity that can link calls between it and the users iPhone ?
Why's my Mac taking my iPhone calls? How to turn off Apple Continuity (pocket-lint.com)
StevenC365No, my work computer is not a Mac. And no programs from my work on are on my phone. They are completely separate. I don't have Teams on my phone, but somehow Teams has power over my phone. I've been searching for how to block anything from Teams on my phone but can't find any settings that are allowing Teams to control my phone and have yet to find where they breached my privacy on my personal phone.

kathheu Are you using Bluetooth headphones of some kind connected to both PC and Phone ?
Otherwise you are implying that it can just hijack a passing device, which clearly isn't very likely.
- kathheuMar 01, 2023Copper ContributorNo bluetooth, no headphones. I'm looking for answers but I have tried all the obvious things. I didn't give Teams permission to access my phone and can't find where to take away permissions I never gave.
You can imagine my surprise when my phone call was put on hold as the other party was attempting to share their screen through teams.
There is something afoot and I can't locate it or figure out how to stop it.
