Only for site administrators

Email invitations do not include a join link for iPhones and iPads.

The email invitation does not include a link for joining a meeting via iPhone.

In my email invitation, I cannot locate the link to join the meeting using an iPhone.

Cause:

The following reasons may be responsible for this:

  • There may have been a custom email template on the website.

  • Site administration does not allow joining via iPhone.
