Thanks for sharing. Obviously I'm very jealous now 🙂 so I hope you can share some more details?
So you have a corporate managed device with intune. Then you also have a work profile and a personal profile for the apps correct? And the teams app you are using every day (not in the car I mean) is the one from the work profile? With the padlock icon?
Can you go to the settings (instellingen) page in that teams app (from the work profile). In the app touch your profile picture in the upper left corner and then go to settings. and can you tell me if you see a calendar menu item? For some reason I dont see it in the work profile teams app but the option is there in the teams app in the personal profile.
I AA I do have the teams app but it only looks for teams messages but there is no calendar. I understand that you do see that right? I'm trying to find the reason as I'm using the same app version.

I made a mistake. The phone is a privately owned phone. It is not completely intune managed. I have added all the O365 apps on them. In all those apps i have 2 profiles, one private (as i have a O365 family license) and a work profile. When i login to my workprofile i have to register for MFA to our company tenant, and i get a popup on the phone asking me that my company is going to administer it.
Now when i start Teams on my personal Android phone, i have only my company profile setup inside. When i click my personal picture on the left, and when i go to settings i see a section for my company with menu options profile, messages, calling, subtitles and subscriptions, persons, shifts, help and feedback and new functions, info, privacy and logout.
However in the UI in the bottom navigationbar i see the options activities, chat, teams, agenda, calls and three dots with the text more.
When i jump into my car, my Samsung S24+ is automatically connecting via Android Auto. When i open the Teams app in android i see all my upcoming meetings and a call section with Quick Dials and History as submenu options. I can join all meetings by clicking on them in my Android Auto Teams app on the calender page and i will automatically join the meeting with audio only.- Hi Brownie71.
First of all, thanks again for the swift reply and clarification! The issue indeed seems to be related to the differences in the app from the Personal profile and the Work profile. Both app versions are the same but only the app from the Personal profile works with Android Auto. If I turn that app off (sleep mode) then it also disappears from AA.
Now that you clarified that you use the Personal teams app but with your corporate account then this is likely the root of the problem that I have because i have not set it up like that. I have not been able to register my corporate account into the Personal app yet, but I'll hope to find a way.
The strangest thing is however, that all the chats from my Work profile teams app DO appear in AA. So the personal app needs to be activated but then it somehow does receive the chats to my corporate account. Go figure...
Anyways, hope I can you ask for some more details if needed? For now I wish you and the others a happy easter!- I have same situation, and there is no way to use my corporate account on private teams app - login attempt always redirects to page with instruction to install MS Intune, and then try again from work profile. It seems that we have to wait for google (OMG!) to implement support for work profile in AA. So who knows, maybe in early 2030's it will be possible 😉
Marcel1735 this is the challenge I have. I think it's the Android for Work profile compatibility with Android Auto that also needs to be solved.
I have a newer version of Teams than most, but it's in an Android Work profile, which Android Auto can't see. The app simply doesn't show up in Android Auto at all.
- Indeed, this is the root cause of the issue. No work profile apps are visible on android auto:
