It seems that Microsoft Authenticator crashes when tries to send the response back to Outlook/Teams.
This happened suddenly yesterday.
I tried deleting the app and downloading again, with fresh setup of accounts within, with no luck.

Can you please assist ?

    I have the exact same issue. It works to authenticate other devices but when I try authenticating Teams or Outlook on my iPhone 12 with iOS 16 the authenticator app crashes. I tried registering the Authenticator app - but then it crashes (it shows up as registered after).

    Had the same problem, under settings, dervice registration, unregister the device. I’m now able to add accounts again :-)

    Hi All,

    I understand this is a known issue affecting many individuals now, so I will suggest you to raise a case/support with Microsoft to start a investigation on this.
