Sometimes on my computer Webex doesn't connect to audio and I am left missing out important portions of class as I connect to my phone. It would be nice if the connect codes were shorter so you could call in easier because if you mistyped you have to call in all over again. Otherwise it's a great. Update:problem seems to be fixed, it happens very rarely now, its great.
This app remains running and in notifications when not in use. No way to consistently turn it off. We've switched over to using Zoom instead with much better usability. Should also be noted that the app darkens the front camera considerably. I load the native camera and have great overhead indoor lighting and I look fine. Load up webex and turn on the camera, and I'm in a cave.
for the most part, pretty intuitive. if you regularly mute on/off take care because other activities on the phone, such as receiving an incoming call can move you off the webex screen making it a bit of a scramble to find the mute button in the interim. Developers, if you are listening, having a preference option to kick on do not disturb to the phone when incoming call happens (or allow for auto response from corner of screen) would be ideal.
I only used it one time. Today. It had background echoing and glitchy. I was on a important job interview so that was not good. I ended up using the video part but not the voice part. They probably thought it was me or my internet but I know it wasn't because I used Skype recently and it was fine. Hopefully you can work out the glitches soon. Thanks.
Overall, I was able to join the meeting remotely using my phone. However, I couldn't figure out how to get out of "audio only" mode from my cellphone. Also, the meeting wouldn't connect to my Bluetooth headset even though it has the option. It stayed on "phone". It wouldn't go to "speaker" option either. This was inconvenient because I had to hold e phone to my ear to hear properly and at the same time try and look at my notes on my phone periodically.
I was impressed with the app's ease of use and lag-free operation. Another helpful feature was that when i used the "call in" option, the app not only dialed the phone number, but also entered the meeting id and attendee id after pausing for the right amount of time. I didn't have to type a single thing on my phone's keyboard.
After my first use of the app I found it to be fairly simple to use. Considering that other meeting attendees were using various devices to connect, the meeting ran smoothly. Using my phone made it a lot easier for me as compared to those who used PC or phone. My only qualm is the intial set up took me out of the app to the web browser to link my account. But, after that the connection was good and there were few problems.
This allows me to work away from the office. Breaks my chains, so to speak. It isn't as intuitive as it could be but technically works as well as my phone most of the time. Also, I feel like most of the people who rate this app don't know how to rate 2, 3 or 4 stars. They're a little bipolar. OMG my bluetooth earpieces sucks so I'm going to rate this app 1 star!! No Cheryl, I rate you 1 star.
Great experience. I can use this app easily on my computer or my mobile phone. It's mostly straight forward and audio quality is not sacrificed while using a mobile phone. Audio quality may be impacted by your phone's speakers, computer speakers, speakers of other participants, and participants not muting their microphones (allowing for background noise). The app is extremely helpful for my schooling.
Not as good as GoToMeeting. Audio is very quiet for my voice to other listeners, yet I hear them fine. I have to yell, and that's with the same wired headset I use for phone call in. It's infuriating that you don't save the password! Every damn day for my daily standup meeting I have to enter it. The IVR dial-in is equally frustrating as my phone preset with # and , doesn't register so the damn voice prompts me. GTM doesn't have this issue - my preset contact dials me right into the meeting. 👎🙁
