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.

At the time (2019) it was the "best response". The feature is being worked on and the latest official reply is found here https://feedbackportal.microsoft.com/feedback/idea/d256e0f6-262e-ec11-b6e6-00224827bbc2

In 2019, according to Microsoft it was going to be completed in Fall. Then again in Q2 2020, then second half of 2021, now apparently end of 2022... Forgive us for not having faith Microsoft can deliver this feature every competitor has after 3 years of moving the goalposts.
As a project manager (who uses multiple accounts) I'd be fired long ago if I kept missing milestones for 3 years. I'd expect Microsoft to be a bit more accurate.

- gorchaseJan 23, 2023Brass ContributorWe already had that functionality for quite some time. there was a post linked earlier (that of course is a dead link now) where in 2019 it (multiple accounts) was promised to be released, the roadmap updated each fall, spring, etc.
You'll have to forgive me if "it'll happen this year" is not believable after 4 yrs of waiting- MyUsername123Jan 23, 2023Copper Contributor
Lol, 4 years. They've been promising this since Skype for Business. My tombstone will read "Still waiting for multiple Teams logins"

Another half a year has passed and it's still missing. Insane.
