How can we make Microsoft Teams better?

Please extend the Teams Mobile App to work with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay

I'm often on the road and my company relies heavily on online meetings :-) So, we are starting to leverage Teams meetings more and more, so when I'm in my car I need an easy way to join meetings and maybe also read messages. While this is way easier now, than it was in SfB Mobile (thanks!) it would be awesome to have an Android Auto / Apple CarPlay Extension to have a somewhat easier and "nearly hands-free" user experience. This would make me much more productive, even if I'm traveling :-)

    This is a must have feature. Needs to be added asap. To participate in a teams call in the car would be very handy for me.

    Any update on this. Use teams everyday and it is frustrating and dangerous when driving and you have to control from your phone. Thanks 🙏

    Is there somekind of an update? I was using an iPhone untill 2 months ago and when using Carplay I could receive Teams calls directly. Since 2 months I switched phones to S20 Android phone. Now I cannot answer any calls anymore and also there is no way to mute/unmute a conversation. Going back in time for me now.

    Crazy it’s been “under review” for two years. Zooms had this feature since 2018

    Great idea. Can you also add functionality to pos a message in a channel, playback channel messages and also send/ playback messages to a chat. Eg. send message to john etc

    Alex, any update? It has been over a year since you advised that it is officially in the development backlog. All meetings are online now, and it would be nice to be able to safely use Teams while driving (through Android Auto).

    Having just lost the Skype calling from the MS Exchange App in my BMW (along with the email facility) please can you sort Apple CarPlay connectivity to Teams ASAP, especially as we are all having to use it now.

    Teams is a very useful tool in the office, but not in the car. Sales people spend most of their time in the car to travel to customers. When we used Webex it worked great because there is an app available that supports carplay. We really looking forward to getting a MS Teams solution that is compatible with carplay. Thanks, Patrick

    Please continue to work on the join a Teams Call feature. I have a great hands free system in my car. I heard the Teams phone ring but could not figure out how to answer it. It rang thru the car's hand free system and because Teams has a different ring when ringing thru my phone, I knew it was Teams. Just need that answer or join piece. Thanks!

    This feature is a MUST HAVE, like private channels on Teams, and it's officially in the backlock, also like private channels. It's also not that hard to implement, as private channels on Teams again.
    It all means it will NEVER be implemented! Sorry folks. User Voice is useless, not only for Teams, but for all MS products (Windows, TFS/DevOps, etc). The only one that is kinda still working is the new Edge's one.

    its illegal to use a mobile when driving and its known bluetooth headsets are almost as distracting
    adding a fully fledged app - can't wait to see the accident justification
    bad idea to integrate
