Notifications are not coming
After the new update, there is a problem in the notifications. While chatting if the window is minimized the new message notification is not appearing.

The fix for notifications not appearing/playing when Teams is minimized is rolling out to the public ring. We expect it to be rolled out 100% by the weekend – I’ll update this item at that point.
Thanks!

Notifications are still not working. I miss all Teams meetings and chats when away from my computer unless I physically log in through my phone. Really need this fixed soon!

Notifications on iPhone were working fine for a while, but for about a week or so (maybe a little longer) I don't receive them on my iPhone running iOS 13.4.1 with the Apple settings for notifications turned on for Teams, as well as the Teams setting set to send notifications "Always" (as opposed to "only when inactive on desktop").
So if I leave my desktop computer, I miss any Teams message that is sent to me, unless I open the Teams app on the iPhone - then they are either there already or all come in at once when it refreshes.

We're still having this issue for call notifications for some users

Notifications still do not come. This is particularly true if you have another Microsoft product open somewhere. For example, if I am working on Outlook on my desktop and want to receive notifications for teams, Microsoft always assumes that I will see the teams notice. I do not. Sometimes my desktop is open and I'm on my phone away from my desk and need to see the team's notification immediately. Most other messaging apps have a feature where you can choose whether to always be notified or be notified only if your app isn't up or open. If the app is open in the background, teams still thinks that you are using it. That's not the case!

An update that was rolled out today doesn’t fix my issue with notifications. All notifications appear as fully white screen with no content visible, when you hover over mouse than content appears

I experienced a lapse in notification this morning on my mobile app when the teams application was not in operation. No banner, no ring on a new chat thread until I opened up the teams app. I did receive a notification and banner and bell alert last night on a reply without having the teams app running.
Is this also something that will be fixed in Alex’s mention on March 11? -

My notifications work for regular chats, or group chats, but I don't get notifications when there are new messages on a team. Is that the intention? It's hard to know when someone has written if it doesn't tell you. Thanks.

I set my teams notifications to banner and feed and save and it immediately goes back to OFF. I don't receive any notifications when I get messages. I have to go and check periodically throughout the day to see if anyone has sent me anything. Can this be fixed?

I only receive system tray notifications, no pop ups in the bottom right corner of the screen. If the Teams window is open and someone calls me, I receive no notification at all on the screen or on my headset; I have to know that they are calling and accept the call in the upper right corner, where the marvelously ambiguous UI barely makes a distinction between the "accept call" and "make a call" buttons. Teams is a mess and there is no way we are subjecting the rest of the company to this madness.

Since updating teams a few weeks ago (late January 2020) Teams won't pop up any toaster notifications when the app is minimised. This needs to get fixed ASAP. Win 7 64bit.
