Pull up Teams Contacts from Desk Phone
We can see that new MS Teams accounts are now able to pull up / sync contacts from Outlook. What we would like to have is a feature on (Android powered with MS Teams app installed) Desk Phones that will be able to pull up MS Teams contacts so that the contact information will show when a contact calls in.
We believe that this feature addition should be done on Microsoft's side, specifically for Desk Phones running on Android. However, we can see that this feature is not yet available even for Teams mobile (both on Android and iOS) and it would be nice if it will be available on that as well.

Contact on physical phones - You should be able to program an external number on your phone. This is a basic concept of a phone in a phone system. You should not have to dial an external phone number to add it to a contact list. You should not have to log into the Teams client to add external contacts quickly or without calling them.

How weird would it be to add contacts to my iphone, then go to the dialer, search for the contacts I added, and not be able to find them? I have all my external contacts fully populated in Outlook, I see that these contacts get synced with the desktop client, but i cant search for and find these contacts on my deskphone, android, or iphone teams app. Am I missing something?
