    I see Microsoft are finally realising this is a big issue and are doing something about it. Estimated start time just about a month off :unamused:

I have the same issue: my account does show files in our own teams environment. The teams i can access as guest in other companies under my same account show chats etc but no files.

I can upload however files. So it behaves as if a filter is active.
This only happens in the ios app (newest version ios 16). In android desktop and browser the files do show up.

This is a big issues for me as I have a lot of meetings on the road and cannot access the files on my phone..

I resintalled ervything on my iphone XR (clean install) and this did not help.
I also did a test on an older iphone 6, ios 12: no problems at all!!

    Yeah, I still haven't got to the bottom of it, but I agree it seems to be since an update to IOS. I worked around it for this particular team by attaching the xlsx sheet they needed as a tab in the team as a work around and that worked. For others you could link to the sharepoint document library possibly to help them with a tab? Its only affecting guests, and MS seem to have been having all sorts of issues recently with them, so it might be related to that?
