Webex Adds iPhone Duo Support with Camera Share and Notetaker

Webex for iPhone Duo is now available on the App Store, as per the latest update from Cisco. With the phone propped open like a laptop, Webex Mobile Camera Share lets you show what your camera sees in a meeting, and remote participants can annotate the live feed.

Webex is a free download, with in-app purchases for paid plans. Apple says well over 100,000 apps are now built for the iPhone Duo, and Zoom Workplace is the other video meeting app with a layout that puts shared content and participants on the inner display together.

Camera Share Lets Others Annotate Your View

Webex Mobile Camera Share works while the iPhone Duo stands propped open in a laptop-like position. You can show a product or walk through a setup, and remote participants watch the live camera feed and annotate it to guide the discussion.

Webex for iPhone Duo Adapts to Every Pose

Webex adapts to both displays and to every pose of the iPhone Duo. Open the phone and you see more meeting participants while shared content stays in view. On the open phone you can also work together on a whiteboard.

Webex also works in Split View next to another app, which gives each app half of the inner display. The 5.4-inch outer display and the 7.6-inch inner display share one aspect ratio, so apps scale proportionally when you open or close the phone.

Webex already runs on CarPlay, Apple TV and Apple Vision Pro, so the iPhone Duo is one more Apple device it supports.

AI Assistant Handles Notes and Summaries

Webex Notetaker Agent is now generally available on the Webex iPhone app. It transcribes and summarizes in-person conversations and generates action items, so you can stay in the conversation and read the details afterward. You can also use it to capture your own thoughts, and the Notetaker screen shows a live transcript with Pause and Stop controls.

Cisco AI Assistant powers Notetaker Agent and also works inside Webex conversations. You can ask it to summarize a conversation so you can catch up, or to find what you need. It also checks your action items and rewrites messages so they say what you mean.

Inside a meeting, the assistant panel suggests prompts such as Summarize, Was my name mentioned? and What are the action items? The same Webex update adds native markdown file preview.
