Teams Mobile Feature updates for iOS

This feature should be rolling out to most tenants already

Be aware that calls made prior to turning this feature off (removing calls from the call log). Already placed calls will remain in the list. The setting only applies to new calls.

This last feature should be rolling out in September.
