Teams Sends Redundant Meeting Reminder Notifications With No Way to Disable Them
Users receive dozens of duplicate meeting reminder notifications that clog their notification queue, with no in-app setting to turn off meeting reminders specifically. The phone OS notification menu only offers a blunt on/off/ping toggle that does not address the redundancy.

Microsoft Teams Ignores Do Not Disturb and Quiet Hours Settings
Teams bypasses OS-level notification controls, sending notifications during Do Not Disturb and quiet hours even with no exceptions configured. This design violates user attention management preferences and the platform's own notification settings.
