On your phone

On a phone, Team Connect opens in a lean version built for chatting and joining meetings. This guide shows how to install it as an app and what you can do there.

What works on a phone

On phone screens, after signing in you get:

• Chat: all your conversations, channels and direct messages, in real time.
• Meet: create and join video meetings, when your company's plan includes Meet.

The office map, proximity voice, the Calendar, AI agents and the admin screens stay on the computer. To use them, open Team Connect in a computer's browser. On tablets and larger screens, Team Connect shows the full version.

Installing it as an app

Team Connect is an installable web app (PWA): it gets an icon on your home screen and opens full screen, without the browser bar. No app store needed.

Android (Chrome)

1. Open your company's Team Connect address in Chrome.
2. Tap the browser menu (the three dots).
3. Tap Install app or Add to Home screen.

iPhone and iPad (Safari)

1. Open the Team Connect address in Safari.
2. Tap Share.
3. Tap Add to Home Screen.

Messages on a phone

1. When you sign in, you see the list of conversations.
2. Tap a conversation to open it full screen.
3. To go back to the list, tap the back arrow at the top of the conversation.

Messages arrive instantly, with the unread count on the Chat tab. On phones that support it, the installed app's icon also shows the number of unread messages. You can attach files with Attach file and mention people with @, just like on the computer. See more in the chat guide.

Some functions are computer-only: managing a conversation's participants and setting up a channel's integrations.

Meet on a phone

When your company's plan includes Meet, a bar at the bottom shows the Chat and Meet tabs.

1. Tap Meet.
2. For a new meeting, give it a name under Create session and tap Create. For a meeting in progress, tap Enter on the session.
3. Allow microphone and camera access when the browser asks.
4. To finish, use Leave call.

If someone sends you a Meet invite link, open it on your phone: Team Connect opens Meet with that meeting already selected.

During a call you can switch to the Chat tab without dropping out; the Meet tab shows a dot to remind you that you are in a call. On a phone, microphone and camera follow the phone's own devices. More details in meetings.
