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.

I came up with a clunky but acceptable solution for now; on my Mac I have simply created different computer user accounts for my different organizations, so that everything I need for one org is in one place. They are all associated with my specific apple ID, so I still have access to cloud things between different user accounts.
Not the best solution, as I have to switch users on my computer, but better than signing out of teams and signing back in and having to verify and blah blah blah every time; I can simply switch users on my Mac and use my fingerprint.

whilst I want Microsoft to sort this out I like this idea for a workaround, I can user switch on my macbook quicker then logging in and out and MFA into Teams.
Does it cause any problems with icloud? I have 4 organisations I work for that use Teams now - and likely to grow

Come on, Microsoft - you're forcing users not to use your product!
