You may install the Teams app on your personal cell phone, but it is not required. If you do install the app on your phone, you may want to silence notifications after work hours.
To control notifications on the Teams app:
- Open the app on your phone
- Select your picture in the upper left corner of the opening screen to open the Settings
- In the Settings screen choose Notifications
- On the Notifications screen select what you would like to be notified of on your phone, you can choose to be notified of everything,
or in the Custom screen you can make specific selections
- Scroll down in the Notifications screen to the Block Notifications section to set specific quiet hours
and to block notifications when you are active on other devices – like your desktop computer,
or when you are in a meeting on your phone
- To set quiet hours select the During Quiet Hours section of the screen, then set custom hours, or entire days to block notifications.
