As part of the ongoing improvements to Webex, the Webex Meetings app is being merged into a unified experience. All the features you use today in the Meetings app will be available in the Webex app (formerly Webex Teams) starting Saturday, May 8, 2021.
Joining a scheduled meeting with the Webex app will provide the same experience as joining a meeting from the Meetings app, Outlook, or a link. You can continue scheduling meetings in the ATU Webex portal or using the Schedule button on the Meetings tab in the Webex app.
Meetings you already have scheduled will continue to function as expected; however, you will be able to join the meeting in the Webex app, and access features like Breakout Rooms, Chat, Reactions, and Q&A.
Meetings associated with spaces in Webex will continue to have a limited feature set available.
There is nothing you need to do for this update to take place. You can begin using the scheduling features in the Webex app after May 8.
Mobile devices will continue to use both the Webex app and the Webex Meet app.
After this transition, OIS will host a Webex training session to demonstrate this change and other notable new features. Stay tuned for another announcement.
If you have any questions, please join our ATU Webex Discussion and Feedback space or contact Campus Support through the Support Portal or by email at campussupport@atu.edu.
