Open teams on an iPad or Iphone Browser
Sometimes, it might be necessary to open Teams in a browser on your iPad or iPhone, but if you try to browse to Teams via Office.com, you would normally find that it doesn’t work. To make it work, go to the settings app , scroll down and find Safari, then disable the option which says ‘Prevent cross site tracking’. You’ll then find you can open Teams in Safari. You can also change the Default Browser to Chrome in the Safari settings.
