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 :-)
210 votesThis feature is still under review.
There is another UserVoice item that is similar, but asking for a “Drive Mode” option for within Microsoft Teams.
If you want to vote up that topic it can be found at: https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103/suggestions/35386396-Warren

Support for Landscape mode in iOS/Android app
Landscape support for iOS would be a real differentiation point to Slack. Slack lacks support for years now. Users of plus size devices would love to read and type to a channel. If you use a Plus size device in landscape and switch to Teams it is quiet annoying that the orientation switches to Portrait as well.

Battery life on iOS & Android
According to iOS Battery report, Teams is responsible for 24% of my battery usage. I am not actively running or using the program, so I assume this is related to background tasks / notifications.
34 votesThere have been some updates released in the past months that should help reduce battery drain.
That being said, I need your feedback to find out if you feel it has improved or if you feel the drain is still pretty large. Please leave me comments and call out which mobile OS you are using.
(NOTE: having notifications on and having a very active team and also greatly reduce battery life due to the constant notifications. You may wish to try and turn off notifications in some cases to help preserve battery. )
Please provide me your feedback so I can communicate it to the feature team.

Call with Teams on Windows 10 Mobile
On Android (and maybe on iOS as well) we can start calls in Teams. Unfortunately, I cannot start a call on my Lumia phone (with Windows 10 Mobile). Please implement this feature!

Persistent Login/Notifications on Mobile
I have a bunch of users that leverage Slack and Google Hangouts for group collaboration and I would like to present them with Teams as an alternative, but I have a major issue that is keeping me from suggesting it:
The mobile app is too inconsistent for making sure that users will see messages. There have been many time when our IT test group will think they are good, but someone will call them and ask why they are ignoring Teams. When you pull up the app, you get the login screen instead of your conversations, only to sign in…
28 votesThank you for the feedback. This feature request is now being actively worked upon by the feature team. I’ll update this topic as we move along through the development.
Please keep the feedback coming. We appreciate all the responses.

Driving Audio Mode
The Teams mobile client needs a Driving Audio Mode. In this mode, the screen sharing and video goes off. The audio controls stay on screen and the mute button is nice and large and easy to hit. With it currently, when I'm driving, I often have to go on and off mute and so I'm having to tap the screen to get the controls to show up, then tap in a very small spot quickly before the controls disappear. This makes me take my concentration off the road too much.

External Keyboard Support on iOS
Better app logic when Bluetooth/External keyboard is connected.
1. Better use of screen real estate.
2. Logical keyboard shortcuts (chat apps typically use "Enter" to send messages, not "Shift+Cmd+D", even though that is what the Apple Mail App uses, it is not consistent with Messages, Slack, etc.
3. Support for formatting (italics, bold, underline, etc.)20 votes -
