With Microsoft Teams on your PC, Mac, or mobile device, you can:            Pull together a team.      Use chat instead of email.      Securely edit files at the same time.      See likes, @mentions, and replies with just a single tap.      Customize it by adding notes, web sites, and apps.

Sign in to Teams                                      Start Teams.                        In Windows, click Start > Microsoft Teams.                On Mac, go to the Applications folder and click Microsoft Teams.                On mobile, tap the Teams icon.            Sign in with your Microsoft 365 username and password.                              Note: Teams is a part of Microsoft 365, so you need a Microsoft 365 Apps for business or Enterprise license to use it.

A channel is a discussion in a team, dedicated to a department, project, or topic.                    The best way to get familiar with teams and channels is to pick a team and channel and start exploring!                    Select Teams    on the left side of the app and then pick a team.                        If you're not on a team and want to create one, see Onboard your teams.            Select a channel and explore the Conversations, Files, and other tabs.                        For more info, see Teams and channels.

The replies in threads are organized under the initial post so it's easier to follow multiple conversations.                     Find the conversation thread you want to reply to.            Select Reply, add your message, and select Send .                                                                                                                                                                                       Have fun with emoji, memes, and GIFs                                      Express yourself and impress your coworkers!                    Select Sticker  under the box where you type your message, then pick a meme or sticker from one of the categories.                    The Sticker catalog contains a wide variety of customizable stickers and memes — you can even upload your own! Check out Emoji for smiley faces and Giphy  for animated GIFs.                                                                                                                                                                                       Share a file                                      Sometimes words aren't enough, and you need to post a file to a channel conversation.                              Tip: Teams works particularly well with Microsoft Office documents.                            In your channel conversation, select Attach  under the box where you type your message.            Select from these options:                                                    Recent                                                                      Browse Teams and Channels                                                                      OneDrive                                                                      Upload from my computer                                      Select a file > Share a link.                        If you're uploading a file from your computer, select a file, select Open, and then select Send .                    You can always see all the files you post to a channel by going to the Files tab.

                    @mention someone                                      An @mention is like a tap on the shoulder—a way to get someone's attention in a channel conversation or a chat.                    In the box where you type your message, type @, then type the first few letters of the person’s name. You can also @mention entire teams and channels.            Select the person. Repeat for as many people as you want to @mention.                    Each person you @mention gets a notification in their Activity feed. Check for a red circle next to Activity  right now to see if someone has @mentioned you!                                                                                                                                                                                       Stay on top of things                                      Notifications let you know when someone @mentions you, likes something you’ve posted, or replies to a thread you started. The Activity feed helps you stay on top of all your notifications.                    Select Activity .                                    Feed shows you a summary of everything that's happened in the channels you follow.                        Select Filter  to show only certain types of notifications such as @mentions or reactions.                Select Feed > My Activity to see a list of everything you've been up to lately in Teams.                                                                                                                                                                                       Search for messages, people, or files                                      Searches cover your entire organization — all the teams and channels that you're part of.                    Type a phrase in the command box at the top of the app and press Enter.            Select the Messages, People, or Files tab.            Select an item in the search results to expand and learn more about it.
