Cannot create Teams meeting Via Outlook for IOS/Android while in Islands Mode?

Can anyone confirm you cannot create a Teams meeting (only Skype) vie the Outlook Mobile (IOS) while in Islands mode.  My understanding was that we would be able to do this starting this month. 

  • Gburd170 We eventually changed the whole tenant to Teams Only coexistence mode, however when it was only my account set for Teams Only coexistence mode, there was a bit of propagation time until I was able to see Teams as the default in my mobile app.

        ariel504305  what is Islands mode? I got to this thread as it drives me crazy that on my iphone in outlook - I can create a meeting but it only gives a Skype checkbox for an online meeting - and no Teams option, which seems crazy to me. This thread seems to indicate that it is possible to schedule a Teams meeting but I don't understand what I would need to do/change?

      Hello,

      It seems that is not possible to create a Teams meeting in Outlook too if my account is in Teams Only but the Tenant is in Island mode.

      Do you confirm this please?

       

      The only way to have Teams meeting in Outlook is to have all the Tenant in "Teams Only" or "Skype for Business with Teams Collaboration and Meetings"?

       

      Do you think we could pass the Tenant in Teams Only and some accounts in Island mode?

        It's based on your user mode. Go in to outlook on mobile > Settings > Account you are using and select Reset account, I've seen the meeting option not update on it's own. Also if you just changed the setting for the user to Teams Only it takes awhile for it to update on the back end, you can't immediately test it. If it hasn't been a few days, wait then try resetting again if the reset didn't work the first time.
  • Not that I've seen. Teams Only mode or Skype with Collab will show Teams Meetings. Islands still Skype.
