Not able to edit file from iOS device
Hi, I have added an Excel file to a channel in Microsoft Teams, however in testing the capabilities I am unable to edit the file from my iOS device. I am able to view at times but not edit. in the mobile excel app It give me a message that says "to edit or save log in with a subscription".

- Do you have a paid Office 365/Microsoft 365 subscription? Are you logged into the app with those credentials - same ones you would use to log into https://login.microsoftonline.com?

ChrisHoardMVP Hi Chris, no I do not have a subscription. Would that be the only way for myself or a teammate to edit a file from a mobile device?
- Yes, see here

You'll need to have a qualifying plan to be able to edit with the Office Apps on mobile. Once you have brought a plan and setup your 365 account, you would log in and be able to edit
Hope that answers your question!
