Raise hand is available in meetings with more than two participants. It's not available in meetings started from a Webex space.

When you raise your hand, it's visible on the Webex app and on devices that support this feature. You can also see if someone has raised their hand from the Webex app. The 'Raise Hand' animation will appear in the top left corner your video stream. It will start out larger and then shrink down. After the animation finishes, the 'Raise Hand' icon will remain visible on the screen until you lower your hand. The 'Raise Hand' icon is also visible in the participant list and in the meeting notification center.
