Details

When you’re already in a Video Meeting on the BT Cloud Phone Meetings app, you can still send invites to more participants to join the meeting. This can be done by clicking on the Invite icon in the menu bar.

NOTE:  You can invite anyone from your Email Contacts, Facebook Friends or Google Hangouts contacts. If they are not in your contact lists, just give them the 9-digit video meeting ID to join. 

UPDATE: BT Cloud Phone Meetings is replacing the legacy dial-in number with a new number by October 2016. After the migration, the Meeting ID will be automatically confirmed (no need to press "1"). An error prompt appears if the meeting ID is incorrect. Meeting security will also be enhanced by making sure the phone participants cannot enter the meeting before the host when Enable join before host (Meetings Desktop app) or Allow Join Before Host (Meetings Mobile app) is disabled.

You can invite participants to your current meeting by:

Using your email contacts
Copying the URL and sending the invite via your mobile phone's native messaging app or through email
Copying the invitation and sending the invite via email 
Using the BT Cloud Phone mobile app Messaging feature 
 

 

Using your Email contacts
