Joining Microsoft Teams Meetings

Microsoft Teams allows participants to join meetings from a computer, smartphone, tablet, or by dialing in. Users can connect through the Teams app, a web browser, or the phone number provided in the meeting invitation. No account is required when joining as a guest. Before joining, attendees can choose their audio, video, and device settings to ensure a smooth meeting experience.
