In this Mytour, you'll learn how to create a meeting in Microsoft Teams, whether you're using the desktop app on Windows or the mobile version. The desktop app allows you to create meetings on the fly or schedule them for a later time, while the mobile app is limited to scheduling future meetings only.
Instructions
Through the Windows App
Launch Microsoft Teams. You can find this app in your Start menu or on your taskbar, ready to go whenever you need it.
Navigate to the Calendar tab. You'll find it next to a calendar icon on the left side of the screen, where your Teams calendar will appear.
Click on either Meet now or New meeting. If you need to start a meeting immediately, select Meet now, or click New meeting to schedule for a future time.
Fill in the meeting details. Provide information like the meeting name, time (if scheduled), list of attendees (they'll receive notifications and emails), and optionally, specify a channel to stream the meeting.
Press the Save. You'll find this button in the top-right corner of the window.
- Once you click Save, the meeting setup window will close, and all invitees will be notified via email in Outlook.
- You can also right-click on calendar events to access more options like deletion or RSVP.
Using the Mobile App
Launch Microsoft Teams. You can find the app icon, featuring two purple profile icons on a white background, on your Home screen, in the app drawer, or by searching for it.
- The Android and iOS versions of the app are identical in functionality.
Tap on the Calendar. This tab is located at the bottom of your screen on the right, featuring a calendar icon.
Tap the calendar icon with a plus sign. You'll find this icon in the top right corner of your screen; it allows you to schedule a new meeting.
Provide the meeting details. In the "New Event" window that appears, you can set a title for the meeting, add participants, and choose the date and time.
- If you'd like a channel to be able to view and join the meeting, tap Share to a channel.
