Summary:
Teams Phone Mobile is introducing a "Call my phone" feature to transfer calls from the Teams app to a cell phone dialer seamlessly using the Audio Conferencing Subscription service. It's for individual calls only and will be available after updates in June and July 2024. No admin action is required for the rollout.

Details:
Coming soon for Teams Phone Mobile (TPM). A new Call my phone feature will allow TPM users (iOS, Android) to transfer an active call from the Teams app to their cell phone dialer on their SIM-enabled device, with no interruption to the call. Teams will use the user's Audio Conferencing Subscription service to connect with the user's cell phone dialer. This rollout will apply to calls to one person (and will not apply to group calls).
This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 385349.
[When this will happen:]
Public Preview: We will begin rolling out early June 2024 and expect to complete by late June 2024.
General Availability (Worldwide, GCC): We will begin rolling out early July 2024 and expect to complete by late July 2024.
