Countdown timer for WebEx meetings showing when meeting is to end

A large percentage of meetings go over their intended end time. Would like to have a countdown timer that shows how much meeting time is remaining. Could also change color when you get to 5 minutes remaining and then change to RED and count up when the end of the meeting is exceeded.

    Webex has now added a countdown timer as an embedded app in our App Hub! See details here - https://apphub.webex.com/applications/shared-timer-cisco-systems.

    Yes great idea. Adding to this; for meetings with lengthy agendas, it would be useful for the chairperson to have the ability to manually set the counter (perhaps off-screen), so that the timer was not bound purely to the full duration of the meeting.

    I can't believe after all this time Cisco has not added this feature either natively or through an app. Of course Zoom has had this feature for a while now.

    Hi, I would need to have also the option to set the count-down time manually, as I do have very often different sub-sessions in one longer Webex-session. Not only or teh full meeting time.

    Would be nice to see a progress bar.

    this would step up webex a lot!

    all we have in physical meeting rooms is a desk, few chairs, a calendar and a WATCH on the wall!

    Desperately needed for time management issues.

    We need this so much to help stop presenters running over time.
