Best practices for joining meetings

You can connect to any Amazon Chime meeting with the desktop client, web client, or mobile app. Make sure you have a stable network connection.

You can join a scheduled meeting in Amazon Chime in multiple ways, depending on your device and environment. To determine the best way to join, expand each section and review the criteria.

If you attend a meeting in a conference room that has a telephone or speakerphone system, you can dial in to the meeting using the phone number provided in the meeting invite. If you use Amazon Chime Pro, you can include international and toll-free access numbers as additional options for attendees. To learn how to configure a dial-in number, see Setting phone numbers.

To attend a meeting in a conference room that has a built-in audio system that is compatible with Amazon Chime choose the meeting from the audio system's user interface. See your conference system's documentation for device-specific guides on how to join a meeting.
