Microsoft Teams: External presenters can join on mobile

If you need to have external presenters join your Microsoft Teams events but they are not able to do so on their mobile devices, this is about to change. With the new update associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 409228, external presenters will have the option to join events via Teams mobile app on their Android or iOS devices. This feature will roll out in stages starting in early September 2024 and is available with no admin action required. It's important to note that this feature is not currently supported for external presenters to join a town hall or webinar through web platforms.

Presenters who are external to the organization will now be able to join events using their mobile devices, which should enhance the experience and efficiency of hosting a remote meeting. Admins do not need to take any action to enable this feature, as it will roll out automatically in stages from early September to mid-September 2024. This change in Microsoft Teams has been associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 409228 and will have no impact on admin users.

For more information on external presenters, it is recommended to review the guidelines and suggestions provided in scheduling a town hall in Microsoft Teams. Notify your users about this change and update any relevant documentation, as appropriate.
