Webex App | Personalize Your App

It is now time for you to set up the Webex App once you have installed it. Get the most out of your Webex App experience by customizing your settings and preferences.

Add a profile picture

In order to begin utilizing your account, you should upload a profile picture as soon as you register your account. Your coworkers and business partners will be able to recognize you if you use a recent pic in order to identify you online. Changing your profile picture can be done with the mobile app, but you need to give Webex App permission to access your photos to make sure that you are able to change it. In order to make use of the full functionality of the app, you will need to grant the app access to your mobile device in order to enjoy its full potential.

Customize the colors of your app

Take a look at the new themes for your views-Bronze, Jade, and Lavender, and add a little more color to your views. The new themes can be found in the settings on your device, along with the existing Light and Dark themes you already have.

You may have noticed that there is a color scheme that has been designed for you by your Service Provider if you subscribe to Webex through them. If you have questions regarding your Provider, please contact the customer service department of your Provider.

Add a custom status

You’re having lunch, aren’t you? Do you have a remote job today? Have you ever been stuck in traffic on your way to work while on your way to work? Please share any status updates with your colleagues so they have a better understanding of what is going on in your life, especially if you don’t look like you are at your desk when they are looking for you, or if you simply want to let them know how you feel today. To learn more about setting a custom status, please visit Set a Custom Status.

Set a cover photo for your profile and spaces

Make your profile, your contact card, and the spaces a little more personal by choosing a background image. A predefined set of images is available for you to choose from, however we are already working on adding the capability to upload custom images shortly.

Set your notifications

It is easier to stay informed about what is happening in your spaces when you receive notifications. The app will automatically send you notifications for all the spaces you have selected when you set it up for the first time. There is a way that you can change the notification settings in Webex App if you do not wish to receive notifications every time a space is updated. All your meeting spaces and scheduled meetings can be set to receive notifications, or a specific meeting space can have its notifications modified.

Virtual background in meetings and calls

Is there something you would like to hide in your video during a meeting or call, so that nobody can see what you are doing? Perhaps you only want it to look like you’re on a beach soaking up the sun and that you’ve got something in your hand to do. Using one of our default virtual backgrounds for meetings and video calls, you can blur your background if your device meets the hardware requirements, or you can choose from a variety of other backgrounds. Make your selection by selecting the Change Virtual Background option under the Self-view video, and then clicking on the desired picture.

Change Your Language

It is possible to select the language you desire for Webex App on your device or in your browser after launching the app. Your device’s language settings will also affect how the Webex App handles the language when you change your device’s language settings.
