Allow a single user to join a Team meeting on multiple devices simultaneously
In Skype for Business, I am able to accept an Audio invitation on the phone app while accepting the Video/Screen sharing invitation from my PC simultaneously. It would be very helpful if I could do that from within Teams as well since I keep my earbuds connected to my phone but my laptop screen makes it much easier to view shared content.

yep at the moment you can only do this if you share or have a link to the call.
link in slack/teams-calendar -> click on one device -> joined.
link in slack/teams-calendar -> click on second device -> joined.get called in teams... can only join from one device. 😭

Honestly, that would be nice. I often have a situation when I need to connect from different gadgets. For example, when the quality of the connection does not allow using the camera and showing the screen, or doing any other activity.

I am able to join the same meeting on my phone, but if the Teams meeting is hosted by an external company, I cannot get the audio to turn on, on my mobile phone. Normally it prompts if I wish to add audio on the mobile phone and this works if it is a meeting from within my company, but it doesn't prompt me to turn on audio on my phone, and even if I try to unmute or remute, there is no effect on the sound on my phone-the sound stays off, even though it implies it should be on.

Even better would be a small window echoing the server outgoing stream.

This would be invaluable - especially for giving lectures - sometimes the slides are "fuzzy", or screenshots/camera aren't showing at the 'far end', or diagrams are inverted. This is the only way to know when this is happening.

I have a teams phone on my desk and if I accept a call on this phone and then the person calling wants to share their screen, I can't see their screen clearly so I would like to accept the screen share request on my desktop, even though they called on the desk phone. I use a Yealink VP59 phone but there are many other teams phones available.

It is easy actually.My son attends his classes on IMac while I use my IPad with my son’s account and I can control the mic and camera easily as he does.

This functionality works for me if it is a scheduled meeting on my calendar. I am able to join from both devices seemlessly. However I am not able to get this to work when somebody starts an impromptu call and screen-sharing session with me. The device I accept the call/session on is the only device I am able to use for that session.

If my daughter logged in using her teams account on her ipad to attend her class and then I want to join the same meeting from my phone , does my login will close her camera and mic ?
I meant if I logged in with my phone using her account while she is in a meeting using the same account and her camera and mic is on, does that will open my camera instead of her ?
Hope u understand me?

I put the Teams app on my iPhone today. Signed in using my personal Microsoft login (MS Office Family account - not sure if that impacts it or not) and then I downloaded the app on my new MacBook Pro (also today) and when I try to sign in with the same login details it says "Someone has already set up Teams for your organisation Ask your admin to get you started with Teams, or set up another org in Teams using a different email address." ...I can't find where "Admin" is when I login to the Microsoft website that shows the Family account info. And I can't get a different email address to sign up to it either...Can anyone help?

You can already do this, but what you can't do is join the same call or 'meet now' from two devices, which forces you to create a meeting so you can talk on one device and share the screen on another.
This happens a lot since for me work I remote into a workstation at the office, which can't push audio from my home computer. -
