Allow users to join a video call/ Chat from multiple devices just like you can do within a Teams Meeting.
The ability to join a Teams Meeting from multiple devices is incredible. It allows the user to define their audio and video by device. Cool! This functionality however cannot be done from within a general video call/ Teams Chat. Please change this.

Agreed! Our school schedules change on a daily basis due to changing circumstances in this pandemic. Scheduling meetings in advance for classes is nit flexible enough. I start a 'meet now' in my class channel, copy the link of that call and put that on Moodle and in the announcement on the chat of the channel. Every time a lesson is scheduled (sometimes extremely short notice) students click on that link. But I need to be able to join from different devices with the same account (which i can do) while being able to use the cameras on both devices simultaneously. And that last part is the part that is not working! Only 1 camera can send video, the other one is then auto-muted.

Yes agree. I have no camera or microphone on my desktop PC but would like to share my document/screen as its easier to be productive on desktop. Then use my iPhone to join the call as an extra device so I can use microphone/camera here. Only way now is the convoluted process of starting a meeting and then join with the extra device and inviting the person to join the meeting. Make it simpler and allow to join with extra device in a 1-on-1 chat

Agreed. This functionality works great for meetings, but is completely absent for individual calls or chats. If I'm talking on a call with my phone, I shouldn't have to end the call to view a screen share on my PC.
