Getting notifications duplicated in Teams mobile app and desktop app

Hi,
There are two issues here,
1.
When using Teams in both PC and mobile device, when a new notification comes for a message, call or any other notification activated activity, I get the notification on both desktop app and mobile app at the same time.
- This is when i am using Teams on desktop app. Let say I had a teams conversation on the desktop app. Then after sometime I am logging into the Teams mobile app from phone. Then I am getting all the messages I have already attended to from Desktop app. This is really annoying.
Thank you

Paige King 21 Reputation points2021-11-11T17:48:27.937+00:00 The Blocked functionality on When Active on Desktop seems to have changed.
I now get Notifications on my mobile device even if I have already read and responded to the notifications on the desktop.
Is there a way to sync notifications so that if they have been read on desktop you don't receive them again as Unread on mobile (and vice versa)?

Hrvoje Kusulja 146 Reputation points MVP2021-08-16T07:56:27.59+00:00 Thank you for the information and detailed screenshots for Teams Android app.
This is a new feature and being able to control.
Too bad that default is not checked already.
Anyhow, thank you one more time.Kind regards

This is crazy... This option should come enabled by default... -

That's for Teams only, would it be too much asking if you have a solution for What's app ?

In my experience, you can try to disable these notifications in your mobile device. Go to notification settings and you can disable the notifications
(such as message, calling) in the client here.
