Multiple Accounts in the Teams Desktop App
The iOS app for Teams allows me to be logged onto multiple accounts simultaneously, but not the desktop App.
Do we know when this will be coming?
Thanks,
Craig

Hi,
The latest public information is that Microsoft is testing this internally and with some customers. It is listed as "working on it" in the uservoice request. A comment also says that they are planning to release it "this fall", but that I doubt.

The initial ”promise” was adding a personal account next to the work/school account.

We already had that functionality for quite some time. there was a post linked earlier (that of course is a dead link now) where in 2019 it (multiple accounts) was promised to be released, the roadmap updated each fall, spring, etc.
You'll have to forgive me if "it'll happen this year" is not believable after 4 yrs of waiting

Lol, 4 years. They've been promising this since Skype for Business. My tombstone will read "Still waiting for multiple Teams logins"

That was the personal account…

- nassooJan 23, 2023Brass Contributor"That was the personal account…" - this is not true. It was always about Teams for work or school.
- Jan 23, 2023No, you're actually wrong here. The first addition was about personal accounts. I know that for a fact.
- gorchaseJan 22, 2023Brass Contributor... ugh this entire thread is about managing multiple organizations and linking to years old (now dead and removed) posts where MS was promising this feature for years. You can say it was personal all you want, but as someone who was involved with the conversation for now almost 4 years I doubt every one of us were misunderstanding.
Stop fanboying and keep waiting for this feature they keep promising us, I'm sure it'll be "this year". then they'll remove all the links again.- Jan 23, 2023I pasted the wrong link above. Edited now.
I don't work for Microsoft, just telling how it is.
