Currently, the ability to assign an event to a channel is only available on the desktop and web versions of Teams, but it’s not yet supported in the mobile app.

Here’s what’s happening:

  • Web/Desktop App: When creating an event on the calendar in Teams, you can choose to create the event within a channel. This allows everyone in the channel to see and interact with the event.
  • Mobile App: Unfortunately, the mobile app doesn’t yet support creating calendar events linked to channels. This is a limitation of the current Teams mobile app features. The mobile version allows you to create personal meetings or events, but you won’t see the option to assign them to a channel.

Possible Workaround:
You could create the event from the web/desktop version of Teams and use the mobile app to manage the event, but for now, you will need to use the desktop or web app if you need to assign the event to a channel.
