Using Mesh on mobile

Mesh offers two mobile access points: your mobile browser and the MS Teams app. These options let you stay productive while away from your desk, tackling essential tasks with ease. However, for team-wide or company-wide tasks, the full desktop version of Mesh is still required.

This article explores the mobile browser version's capabilities across different modules.
