Microsoft Teams is not listed on my iphone's privacy microphone setting
df777 The PG responded with a whole set of options for you to try. It's not a known issue and they can't pinpoint with certainty, but hopefully one of these can help you out.
Please also let me know if this helps you resolve it.
Managed device
Do you happen to have your device managed by your company? It might be that they have a policy to block the usage of the microphone.
Reset network settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network settings. Your device might restart automatically, but if it doesn't, please restart manually. You will have to reconnect your network settings when your device reboots. Afterwards, open Teams and it should now prompt you for mic access.
Just to be clear, there is impact doing this reset. Please check out this page to be fully informed: https://www.howtogeek.com/270185/how-to-reset-your-ios-devices-network-settings-and-fix-connection-issues/
Fix comes from Apple support forums: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/251269841No apps are showing under Privacy -> Microphone
Looking at your screenshot of that page, you have no apps in there. I have multiple, some very high profile: Facebook, Skype, WhatsApp, etc. If you really don't have any of those apps on your device, it's ok, but if you do: there might be a phone failure here.
Even apps that you don't have approved should show up.As a general test, can you try installing "Skype" consumer app? It should also prompt you and show up in that list.
Teams for Personal
Last option: uninstall Teams app, reinstall. Upon opening the app, sign up for a Teams for Personal account with your personal Microsoft account. This should also trigger the microphone ask again.
You can all include me as a victim of this problem, now.
I have used the MS Teams iPhone app every day for
the past 5 years and just had this mic problem pop up.
I’ve tried every solution suggested in this thread and nothing has worked. How can this actually be an issue without any definitive resolve???????
LaneMiller82, I cracked this nut about a week after I posted about it and it's Apple not MS. It's another one of those increasingly common mac os bugs that's actually an intentional design decision so disastrous it functions as a critical bug but I don't recall where the hidden settings dependency is buried, give me a few minutes and I'll find it again.
Mac OS and iOS are now both fully realized versions of the disaster they were always destined to be once Chaudhri convinced Steve Blowjobs that his users were so stupid on average that a back button would create "trust issues", unbelievably still cited as some kind of genius insight rather than two dudes with their heads so far up their own asses it counted as insight. The UX hell Apple users live in now is just a few trillion dollars downstream from that one fateful decision.
