iOS App for Dialpad Meetings

The Dialpad Meetings iOS app allows you to start and join meetings from anywhere, not just on a computer.

To begin, download and install the Dialpad Meetings app from the Apple App Store. Keep in mind that your iOS device must be running iOS 15 or above.

Let’s take a look at the Dialpad Meetings app for iOS devices.  

View Your Dashboard

Your Dialpad Meetings' dashboard allows you to quickly check meeting information, start or join a meeting, check your profile, and access app settings.

Start a Meeting

To start a meeting, select Start Your Meeting 

1. Decide if you’d like to join with video or only audio
   • Toggle on the Microphone icon to join the meeting with your audio on
   • Toggle on the Camera icon to join the meeting with your video on
2. Select Join Meeting

.  

If you don’t want to send or receive any video in order to conserve data usage, select More Options > Audio Only. It will not turn on your camera during the meeting or display other Participants’ video.

More Options also lets you opt-in to View screenshare only and request a dial-in to the meeting rather than needing to join via the app.

Invite Participants During Meeting

Participants are able to join using the meeting URL, but you can also navigate to the More tab as the Organizer and select Invite Others.

Dialpad Meetings displays a list of recent, frequent, and personal contacts to invite.

Join a Meeting

To join a meeting, tap on the searchbar that reads "enter meeting URL" and type in the name of the meeting and hit Enter to join. 

Toggle the Microphone icon for audio and the Camera icon for video. Once you’ve determined what to toggle on/off, select Join With Video.

When using the Dialpad Meetings mobile app, you can watch up to 5 other participants’ video streams at once! Easily see who is speaking by the purple outline around their video feed.

Easily switch back and forth between sharing your screen and viewing the other people in the meeting. 

1. Tap the screen to access your active meeting menu
2. Select the Actions Menu (the three vertical dots)

Meeting Tab

Use the Meeting Tab to toggle the microphone, camera, or speaker and to end the meeting.
