Make your messages easier to read by adding rich text formatting

When you send formatted text in a message on Webex App for Windows, Mac or Web, people using Webex App for iPhone, iPad, or Android can see the formatting.

However, when you send underlined content in a message, users on Webex App for iPhone and iPad see this content without the underline.

Select and then choose the formatting that you want to use. You can add headers and lists or apply bold, italic, and underline styles.
