The Webex Meetings desktop app package includes two parts: the in-meeting app, which allows you to host or participate in meetings, and the pre-meeting app, which resides on your desktop.

You can use the pre-meeting desktop app to join meetings, whether or not you have a Webex account. If you sign in with a host account, you can start meetings instantly, schedule meetings, join your scheduled meetings, add integrations to join meetings from other apps, and detect nearby video devices. If you sign in with an attendee account, you can see and join your upcoming meetings and detect nearby video devices.

If you don't have an account or haven't signed in, you can still use the Webex Meetings desktop app as a guest to see your upcoming meetings, easily join your meetings, and connect to a video device.
