Skype for Business Mobile App + Smart Card Required
- Jul 12, 2017
MA will not help in this case has the Skype Business Mobile app will still require to enter a username and password.
Have you enabled Modern authentication for your tenant (both SfB and ExO)? Also, is the password prompt directly from the app, or does it redirect you to the AD FS server first?
The steps to enable MA are here: https://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/34339.skype-for-business-online-enable-your-tenant-for-modern-authentication.aspx
Modern authentication is not enabled in the tenant for SfB or ExO.
The password prompt is directly from the application, it does not redirect me to my ADFS login page.
Actually the SfB mobile application require a password before its even possible to sign in, I'm unable to continoue without specifing a password (the arrow button is grayed out).

That's where MA should help. Though I've had limited success in actually making it work on mobile devices (well, Windows Phone).
Once you enable MA, it should redirect you to the AD FS server, where you can surface additional auth options.
