I get the same notification twice: on phone and laptop

Teams, Outlook, and WhatsApp Business can push to multiple devices simultaneously. There is a setting for that.

support/mobiel-en-telefonie/notificaties-dubbel-op-telefoon-en-laptopsteps: 4

Try this first

  1. In Teams: Settings > Notifications > 'Notify me on the phone only when I am inactive on the laptop'. Stops double pushes.
  2. In Outlook: disable phone alerts while you are at the desk, or use the focus-hours setting.
  3. On iOS: Focus modes can mute apps on one device while another is active.
  4. WhatsApp Business: only the most recently active device gets notifications; confirm which one that is.

When to bring us in

If everything still doubles, sync is broken; flag it and we will check the tenant.
