SMS in Microsoft Teams
Microsoft does not offer texting in Microsoft E5 or any Office 365 license and it's been on the roadmap for years. We developed a simple and familiar app to allow a Teams user to send SMS (text) in Teams. You can port your existing Teams number, or assign new numbers in Teams for sending & receiving SMS/MMS as well as shortcodes, Two Factor Authentication (2FA) or some call it Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA). All the group (MMS) texting is supported just like any other mobile phone.
Works in the Android and iPhone mobile app
And all Desktop Teams versions.

Keep in mind that this is a Person to Person (P2P) testing-only service, and Application to Person (A2P) texting is not permitted on Evolve numbers. We do not offer a "texting only" service. Texting is only supported when subscribed to as a Voice and Text bundle. Voice only is always an option.
