The Teams app is a handy tool for collaborating with your colleagues during office hours. If you want to have time to relax in the evening, it can be useful to turn off notifications automatically. That way you can fully concentrate on other things without being distracted by notifications from Teams.

To automatically disable notifications from Teams , follow these steps:

  1. Open Microsoft Teams and click on the cog icon in the upper right corner.
  2. Select "Settings" from the menu.
  3. In the left menu, select "Notifications."

  5. Click "Forward to this app" and select "Disable" from the menu that appears.
  6. Set the time you want to turn off notifications and click "Apply" to save the change.

These settings allow you to automatically turn off notifications from Teams every night or on every day as you wish. This way you can ensure that you can relax quietly and undisturbed in the evening hours without being distracted by notifications from the app. If you want to turn the notifications back on, you can adjust the settings again and select "Enable" instead of "Disable." This way, you can easily turn notifications on and off as desired.

Thanks for this tip! Happy to provide solution for this one: Since this week all calls and messages on my WIN10 PC are in the background. Normally an incoming call is leading and recording is easy. Now you have to make all screens small to record. DRAMA just... Suspect it has to do with an update of windows or temas. Is there a solution for this already?
