When you’re busy and need to take a meeting or webinar on another device, seamlessly transferring meetings and webinars between devices is very quick and convenient. Whether taking a meeting as you leave to walk the dogs, switching devices due to low battery, or arriving at your office and wanting to take advantage of some features or controls unique to the desktop client, this feature gives you the flexibility to participate in meetings and webinars as you need with your busy schedule.

Notes:

• When transferring a meeting or webinar between devices, certain settings and data will not transfer between devices, such as sent chat messages, your raised hand status, any active local recording, closed captions, submitted Q&A, and view of the full transcription. This is the same as re-joining a session after leaving or disconnecting.
• Transferring a webinar between devices is only possible for the host and co-host of the webinar.

Transferring a meeting or webinar from another device

If you’re already participating in a meeting or webinar on one device, you can check the list of upcoming meetings on another device you are signed-in to for the option to switch the meeting to this device.

Note: Transferring a webinar between devices is only possible for the host and co-host of the webinar.
