Cohosts can record meetings in the cloud—Windows, Mac, Linux, VDI, iPhone, iPad, and Android
We originally announced this feature in April. It's available

Cohosts have the same capabilities that a host has. They can start, stop, or pause the recording. After the meeting ends, the host still owns the recording. The recording is shared automatically with the cohosts within the organization.
If you prefer, your Webex administrator can also allow meeting participants to record meetings in the cloud.
Annotate on shared content—Windows and Mac

Run two instances of your app side-by-side—iPad
Take advantage of your iPad's ability to multitask so you can focus on specific meeting content. Split shared content, the participants panel, or the chat panel into its own window on your iPad screen so you don't miss anything. If you attached a monitor to your iPad, move the second window to its own screen to give yourself more room to see what's going on. For select iPad models, use the iPad's Stage Manager for easier multitasking.
Play a notification sound when someone’s waiting in the lobby—VDI
If you lock your meeting, sometimes it’s difficult to notice when someone’s waiting in the lobby to join.
Hosts and cohosts can now choose to the app play a sound on their computer when someone enters the lobby.
You only hear the sound when you're the host or cohost. The sound only plays once every 10 seconds, regardless of how many users have entered the lobby.
See Webex App | Play a notification sound when someone is waiting in the lobby
Hide the participant video and meeting control panel when you’re sharing content—VDI
In a meeting, if you prefer to see only the content that you’re sharing, you can now hide the floating panel that contains participant videos and the meeting controls.
In earlier releases, you had the option to collapse the panel but now you can hide it completely if you prefer if you prefer the panel to be out of your way.
To show the panel again, press Ctrl + Alt + P (Windows) or Shift + ⌥ + P (Mac).
Fit your camera video in self view—VDI
In earlier releases, if your camera video used a 4:3 aspect ratio, Webex cropped your self view to a 16:9 aspect ratio to fit the frame. With our new Zoom to fit setting, we preserve your full camera video. Preview what your self-view video looks like in .
If you prefer to preserve the 4:3 aspect ratio, uncheck this setting.

You can also collapse and expand sections to give your space list a clean new look. When collapsed, if there are unread messages within your favorites or other sections, the section title will be bolded with a blue notification dot, making sure you don't miss an unread space.
When you create sections on desktop, you can see these sections on iPhone or iPad.

This helps build better working relationships, and takes the guessing out of everyday interactions. This feature is off by default and must be enabled by your organization's administrator.
See Webex App | Set your pronouns

The calling service your administrator has set up for you determines which calling features you can use.

The following features apply to Unified CM, Webex Calling, and Calling hosted by a Service Provider |
Fit your camera video in self view—Windows and Mac
In earlier releases, if your camera video used a 4:3 aspect ratio, Webex cropped your self view to a 16:9 aspect ratio to fit the frame. With our new Zoom to fit setting, we preserve your full camera video. Preview what your self-view video looks like in (Windows) or (Mac).
See the network connection status indicator when you’re sharing content—Windows and Mac

Move meeting reminders—Windows and Linux
Reminders getting in the way? To help you finish what you’re working on before joining your meeting, drag and move your Webex meeting reminders anywhere on your screen.
Cohosts can record meetings in the cloud—Windows, Mac, Linux, VDI, iPhone, iPad, and Android
We’re excited to announce that we’re allowing cohosts to record a meeting in the cloud. This makes it easy to record a meeting if the host isn’t available or is busy during the meeting.
Cohosts have the same capabilities that a host has. They can start, stop, or pause the recording. After the meeting ends, the host still owns the recording. The recording is shared automatically with the cohosts within the organization.
If you prefer, your Webex administrator can also allow meeting participants to record meetings in the cloud.
Invite any user to an in-progress meeting by email—Windows, Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Android
As a host or cohost, you can now invite Webex users from outside of your organization and users who don't have a Webex account to join a meeting that’s in progress.
In the meeting window or participants panel, click Invite people and enter their email address. The invitee receives an email invite to join the meeting.


See the meeting status indicators when you’re sharing content—Windows and Mac
The indicators that show your network connection and CPU status and whether the meeting is locked or being recorded now show in the floating mini window that appears when you’re sharing your screen or application window.
Hide the video and controls when you’re sharing content—Windows and Mac
In a meeting, if you prefer to see only the content that you’re sharing, you can now hide the floating window that contains participant videos and the meeting controls.
In earlier releases, you had the option to collapse the window but now you can hide it completely if you prefer the window to be out of your way.

Fit your camera video in self view—Windows and Mac
In earlier releases, if your camera video used a 4:3 aspect ratio, Webex cropped your self view to a 16:9 aspect ratio to fit the frame. With our new Zoom to fit setting, we preserve your full camera video. Preview what your self-view video looks like in (Windows) or (Mac).
If you prefer to preserve the 4:3 aspect ratio, uncheck this setting.
Share application windows directly from your Windows taskbar—VDI
If you use Windows 11, there’s a new way to share content during a call or meeting. Hover over any open app on your taskbar and you see a new button that allows you to share the app window.

See Webex App | Share an application window directly from the Windows taskbar
Focus on the individual, instead of their surroundings, during a meeting—VDI
We've added new feature in grid layout called people focus, which gives you a better face-to-face experience with the people you're meeting with.
Regardless of how each person is positioned in front of their camera, the app automatically adjusts so that each person's face is what you focus on. You feel more connected to them—as if you're there in person.
See Use people focus to see people more clearly in meetings and webinars
Book an available room when invited to a meeting—Windows, Mac, and Linux
As a meeting invitee, search for and add meeting rooms to a scheduled meeting. Simply type the room name, and see if it's available for your meeting time.
Guest meeting settings—Windows and Mac
When you join a meeting as a guest, you now have access to more meeting settings, such as:
- Appearance—change the theme color
- Accessibility—screen reader and keyboard shortcut options
Features available only on our Video Mesh-ready meeting platform
The Webex meeting experience is now starting to roll out on the Video Mesh-ready platform. This platform allows for improved and simplified experiences for hybrid work across the entire Webex Suite, with common architecture, administration, and integrations. It converges the meeting experience across Webex applications and devices, and unlocks potential for continuous collaboration before and after a meeting, with rich real-time experiences. Find out if your meetings are running on the Video Mesh-ready meeting platform.
The following features are available only on the Video Mesh-ready meeting platform.
Add files in a meeting—Windows, Mac, Linux
Improve your meeting experience and upload files during a meeting where all attendees can download the files. Hosts and cohosts can turn off the ability for everyone to add files at any stage of the meeting.
Preassign participants to breakout sessions—Windows and Mac
As a host, if you already know which breakout sessions you want to assign participants to, create the breakout sessions ahead of time when you schedule the meeting. Let Webex App automatically assign participants to the sessions, manually assign participants to the sessions yourself, or let the participants choose which session to join.
Move your meeting to a new device—Windows, Mac, iPhone, iPad, and Android
Seamlessly move a meeting from one desktop or mobile device to another without disrupting or disconnecting from the meeting. For example, if you commute to work and join a meeting on your mobile device, move the meeting to your laptop when you get to the office. Or, if you need to step away from your computer during a meeting, move the meeting to your mobile device.
By default, the meeting moves to the new device, and you leave the meeting on the previous device. If you prefer, change your meeting preference to keep both devices in the meeting.
See Webex App | Move a meeting to another desktop or mobile device
Provide or request remote desktop control when sharing your screen—VDI
When you're sharing your screen during a meeting, you can give someone else mouse and keyboard access to your screen. You can also request access to someone else's screen when they're sharing. This can help if you need to troubleshoot an issue or if you're in a training session with someone.
Remote desktop control is supported only when you share your entire screen, and not when you share other types of content.
The following enhancements are available on our Video Mesh-ready platform.
When you start a meeting
After you start an instant meeting, it's easy to invite people to join the meeting, directly from the meeting window.

With our improved notification system, participants no longer need to notify the host when they're waiting in the lobby to join a meeting. We removed the Notify host button so hosts no longer need to check their email. The host now automatically receives a notification from the app when there are participants waiting in the lobby.
In the meeting window
We've made several changes to improve your experience and improve the workflow during a meeting. The Layout and Zoom buttons are conveniently located so you can switch to other layouts or show more participants.
In grid view layout, use the navigation controls to quickly go from one page to another, or to jump back to the first page of participants.
The participants panel not only shows you the participants who are In the meeting but also the people who are invited but are Not in the meeting yet. The participant panel is also now more user-centric so a user is listed once only, even when they join from multiple devices.
Since most people join a meeting with their audio turned on, the participants panel now shows an audio indicator only when a participant has muted their audio. That way, if someone is talking but you can't hear them, you can scan the list of participants to see who has their audio turned off.
The meeting options are simplified, and related menu items are removed from the right-click menu of the participants panel.
Instead of opening multiple panels at once and taking up valuable screen space, you can open one panel at a time and pop multiple panels out, when you need to.

We've simplified syncing the stage. After the host syncs the stage, attendees can't customize the stage and adjust the stage proportion. Attendees now always see the view that the host intended them to see.

While sharing content
It's more convenient to share your Webex meeting window. Share it directly from the Share content dialog—where you share all other types of content—by sharing Webex App.
When you're sharing your screen, you can give remote desktop control to other participants, or they can request control, which provides a lot more flexibility to users.
To save screen space when the shared content is maximized, we show all participant videos in a narrow floating panel.

You can now share a specific area of your screen only. Participants only see the portion of the screen you select, not your entire screen.

We've simplified the actions available during sharing, keeping the share-related actions in the control bar at the top of the screen. Other key actions that you commonly use, such as mute or unmute audio, appear in the floating window.

Favorite menu bar items are now more contextual and convenient to access
We've optimized the location of the most popular options on the menu bar. You can now access options from the Share, View, Audio & Video, Participant, and Meeting menus directly from the meeting controls.
For example, access Audio Settings from the Audio
options drop-down in . Access Video Settings
from the Video options drop-down in
.

Go to More options in the meeting controls to
access meeting options and enable breakout sessions.

When you chat in a meeting
Get more from your meeting with our enriched in-meeting chat. Organize a productive meeting by sharing the meeting agenda, notes, and a summary in the chat. Even if you join the meeting late, you can easily catch up by seeing meeting chat from the start of the meeting. Engage and express yourself by using markdown, reactions, or GIFs. Revisit and share the chat after the meeting ends.

When you're multitasking during a meeting
When the window is minimized or covered up by other applications, a floating mini window appears on top of the other applications that you’ve open. This allows you to keep an eye on what’s happening in the meeting. To easily get back to the meeting, click anywhere in the floating mini window.

See Webex App | Show your self view only when your video is on
See yourself in full-screen mode—iPhone, iPad, and Android

Use an external USB camera as shared content—Windows and Mac

Share application windows directly from your Windows taskbar—Windows
If you use Windows 11, there’s a new way to share content during a call or meeting. Hover over any open app on your taskbar and you see a new button that allows you to share the app window.

See Webex App | Share an application window directly from the Windows taskbar

Meetings associated with a space—Windows, Mac, Linux, VDI, iPhone, iPad, and Android

To schedule or start a meeting in a space, you must have a Webex Meetings license or the free Basic Meetings license, and be in the same organization as the person who created the space. Without a license, you only have the capability to join meetings.

Animated reactions let meeting participants express themselves without saying anything in a meeting. Cheer on the speaker with the clapping hands reaction or appreciate a joke with the haha reaction. Get a sense of the audience's response by asking participants to give a quick thumbs up or thumbs down.
Maximize what you see when content is shared—Linux

See more in thumbnail videos—Linux
An audio indicator to the left of the name label indicates whether the participant is muted or unmuted.
Name labels in thumbnail videos are now aligned to the lower left, have a more transparent background, and are reduced in size to avoid covering up the participant's face.

All the world’s a stage—Linux and VDI
Customize your video layout when you’re in stack or side by side layout. Drag a video from the filmstrip on to the stage to get a closer look at a participant.

We’ve made it more intuitive to join a meeting—Linux
Enhancements to the Join meeting window make it clearer when you’re not yet in the meeting. Visual changes let you know what your audio options are when you join the meeting.

It's easier to see what your camera options are, how to upload or change your virtual background, and make changes if you’re connected to a device.

Preview of shared content—Linux

See Webex App | Automatically start your video when you join a meeting
Microsoft Teams Integration: More streamlined calling experience for mismatched UPN (User Principal Name)—Windows and Mac
Previously, when you made a call and your UPN in Microsoft Teams didn't match your UPN in Webex, we asked you to confirm before making the call. We have now simplified this experience by checking your email addresses (not just your UPN) and allowing the call to go through without needing confirmation.
Your UPN in Microsoft Teams can be different than the UPN used in the Webex integration, if your organization has gone through an acquisition, rebranding, or if you moved from a different department in the company, or maybe you changed your name: your email address would be updated, but your UPN would remain the same.
