Announcing the retirement of the Webex App for Chrome The Webex App for Chrome is being retired. Instead of using this app, we recommend using the Cisco Webex Meetings Web App for a more full-featured experience, including hosting, screen sharing, and joining events. If you use the Webex App for Chrome to join by meeting number, you are now redirected to the meeting join page, where you can join the meeting directly in your browser, including Chrome. |
The Cisco Webex app for Chrome is a Chrome-specific app and provides the same ability to join a meeting through the browser as the Cisco Webex Meetings web app. It is available for download in the Chrome Web Store. Using the Cisco Webex app for Chrome, attendees can join meetings directly in their browser by entering the meeting number.
Promote Your App The Webex App Hub is the central hub where webex users discover and add apps to enhance their Webex experience. Listing your app is easy. In addition, with our Ecosystem Sales program, you can leverage Cisco's global sales team to help resell your app. Cannot share Desktop or Apps during WebEx - I upgraded to Catalina Mac OS 10.15 and my Webex worked once, then when I tried it again, I was presented all kinds of pop-up boxes (that looked suspicious) and I denied them all during WebEx start up. Then I could not share any WebEx screens again. This feature will be added to the Webex Teams later this month. Multiline support within teams — Windows and Mac. Are you looking for an easier way to manage multiple phone lines? Now you can use Webex Teams to manage work group environments such as boss/admin, support group, or contact center all within one app. Most likely it's Cisco Webex Meetings with Cisco Webex Teams. But if you have an older Webex Meetings plan without Webex Teams, a Webex Training Center, Webex Support Center, or Webex Event Center plan, select the second option.
