Accessing and using Microsoft Teams on smartphones and tablets across platforms
Dear @Manish Verma 2,
Thank you for sharing the details. I understand how frustrating this is, especially since the issue is affecting your ability to join calls and sign in on Teams.
In this case, to help me narrow this down, could you please confirm the details below:
- Are you using a personal Microsoft account (@outlook.com/hotmail.com) or a work account (@company.com)?
- Are you able to sign in to Microsoft Teams successfully on another device (PC, laptop, or another mobile phone)?
- When you try to sign in, do you see any specific error message or error code?
- Does the issue happen on both Wi‑Fi and mobile data, or only on one network?
- Are you using any VPN, firewall, or security app on the phone?
In the meantime, here are some steps I recommend you try to help me narrow down the issue:
Step 1: Clear Teams app cache and data by going to Settings > Apps > Microsoft Teams > Storage > Tap Clear cache, then Clear data > Select Force stop, reopen Teams, and sign in again.

Step 2: Temporarily disable any VPN > Ensure Teams is allowed to run in the background (Battery optimization off) > Allow both Wi‑Fi and mobile data usage for Teams
Step 3: Try signing in on another phone and on a different network (Wi‑Fi vs mobile data)
Step 4: Please also check how much free storage space is currently available on your phone? Please ensure there is at least 2–3 GB of free internal storage.
If storage is low, please try deleting unused apps or files, clearing cached data (especially media and downloads), restarting the phone after freeing up space, then test Teams again

I hope the information shared helps point you in the right direction. Please try the steps above and let me know if they work. If not, we can continue working together to narrow this down.
The first response may not always resolve the issue right away, but with your help and more details, we can work toward a solution.
Thank you for your patience and understanding. I'm looking forward for your reply.
