Multiple Accounts in the Teams Desktop App
The iOS app for Teams allows me to be logged onto multiple accounts simultaneously, but not the desktop App.
Do we know when this will be coming?
Thanks,
Craig

Hi,
The latest public information is that Microsoft is testing this internally and with some customers. It is listed as "working on it" in the uservoice request. A comment also says that they are planning to release it "this fall", but that I doubt.

audunspello just recognized, now you can use another account... but only a private account. That does not really make sense. Why would I use a private account in addition?
Seems that Microsoft does not care or is not capable of accomplishing that task.

Lucky you, it's after February here but I still don't have access to more than one account. Not that accessing a private account is any bit useful as you mentioned... Guess I'll keep using my multiple private browsers or switch clients away from Teams to the multitude of other options with this functionality.
- Thomas42Mar 06, 2021Copper ContributorFor whatever reason, the option to add another private account sometimes vanishes in my client. Maybe restart it or if it is not up to date, try search for updates as ChristianBergstrom suggested.
- ChristianBergstromMar 05, 2021Silver ContributorHi, did you read the reply above? It's about to be rolled out. And if you can't see the "add personal account" option you probably need to update your client (check for updates/signing out and in manually) as it's been available some time.
