A green up-arrow will appear with the icon if a meeting is in progress, e.g.,

o How do I cancel a future meeting?

Click on any meeting from the either the List view or the Calendar view after login, and then click the Cancel button on the meeting detail screen. If the Cancel button is not visible, it’s likely too late to cancel, or the video meeting is not self-service.

o How do I edit a future meeting?

If a meeting can be edited, an Edit button will appear on the meeting detail screen, which brings up the same series of screens used for scheduling new meetings with meeting data populated. Make any changes on each screen, and then click Update Meeting on the Preview screen.

o How do I control an ongoing video meeting?

If a self-service video meeting is currently in progress, a “Control” button will be visible on the meeting detail screen, which brings up the meeting controller screen.

On the meeting controller screen, a green checkmark next to the site name indicates the site is connected, while a red cross indicates the site is disconnected (no video). A temporary question mark icon means the status is being refreshed. One can connect/disconnect each site by tapping the site name, after which a spinning wheel icon will appear momentarily next to the site indicating it is being connected/disconnected.

             

This screen is automatically refreshed to reflect current site and meeting status. You can optionally extend or end a live meeting using the corresponding button.

o I can schedule a meeting using the web portal, but I don’t see the Add Meeting (Plus-sign) button after I sign in to the app. Why?

This is likely due to the fact that your company requires certain special steps in scheduling a meeting that is outside the capability of the current mobile app. Please look for future updates in the App Store as we keep adding more features.

o What types of meetings can I schedule with this app?

You can schedule either a room reservation, a self-service video meeting, or producer-assisted video meeting provided your company is provisioned for each meeting type.

o How do I schedule a video meeting that starts right away?

On the Meeting Type/Time screen, when you choose Self-Service video meeting type, a “Launch Now” Yes/No switch will appear. If Yes is selected, the meeting will start right after you schedule it, and the meeting controller screen will display automatically.

o What sites can I view and schedule a meeting with?

You can view/select any sites under your company. By clicking on the blue button at the top of the Site Selection screen, one can switch between different site directories.

Sites that are not available during the chosen time slot will not appear on Site Selection screen.

o How do I pick sites on the Site Selection screen?

Simply tap a site name to select/deselect each site. Any picked sites will be part of the site list when one switches site directory.

o How do I include SIP-based desktop dial-in sites like Cisco Movi?

Simply choose the desired number of desktop participants on Site Selection screen if you account is provisioned for this option.

o Can I include audio participants in a video meeting?

Yes. You can specify the number of audio participants on the Site Selection screen for a producer-assisted video meeting. Support for audio in a self-service meeting will be added in the near future.

o How do I change the host site of a new meeting?

 

By default, the first site you selected will be used as the host site. You have the option to change to a different site on the Preview screen by tapping a site name.

 

o How do I start a manual launch meeting?

If your user account is provisioned for manual-launch option, you can schedule and then start a video meeting by clicking the Start button on meeting detail screen, as soon as the meeting start time arrives. Otherwise you video meeting will start automatically.

o Will I get standard confirmation for the meetings I have scheduled using BT Engage Meeting Mobile?
