Hand Raising

[schiras]

Hello GlennD,

what's new about new Desktop-Version with Handraising?

I wish I could get my attendees using the web browser, instead Gotomeeting always insists on downloading!

@Jebross613  Soon GoTo will ask each attendee how they want to join, and we are introducing Hand Raising to the desktop + mobile software shortly.

We are pleased to announce that Hand Raising is now available in the new GoTo App experience! Check out this article for more information.

How do I make this visible in the GoToMeeting desktop app version 10.19.0?

Hi @PeterParslow welcome to the GoTo Community. 

This feature is only available in the new GoTo app experience. 

[PeterParslow]

This morning, that is the "experience" I get. I'm not aware of changing anything since yesterday!
Let's hope it stays!

[PeterParslow]

Sadly, today's meeting has reverted to the old interface - no "raise hand".

What is it that controls when I see the "new experience" and when I don't? I haven't managed to spot a pattern or way to influence it.

Hi @PeterParslow, 

The GoTo Meeting organizer controls if the meeting uses the classic GoToMeeting or the new GoTo App experience. The organizer can switch to the GoTo App by signing into their account on our website > open the menu in the top right > Settings > Meetings

That's really helpful, thanks. I'll let the various meeting organisers know, and hopefully they'll adopt the new experience.
