To create a Teams account, follow these straightforward steps:
-
Open the Teams app: This could be the desktop app, the web app in your browser, or the mobile app on your phone.
-
Enter your email or phone number: In the app, you'll be prompted to enter your personal email address or phone number. Then, tap or click "Next".
-
Select "Create a free account": Look for an option that says "Create a free account". It may appear after entering your email/phone or on the next screen. This option will guide you through the setup process for a free Microsoft account, which is needed to use Teams.
-
Follow the on-screen instructions: Microsoft will guide you through creating your account, which includes verifying your email address or phone number and setting a password. Be sure to create a strong, secure password.
Once your Microsoft account is created, you can use it to sign in to Teams and start collaborating! Note that this will create a personal Teams account. For a work or school account, your organization needs to provide access.
