Why meetings sometimes open in your browser

When a meeting organizer uses Amazon Chime to schedule a meeting, the meeting invitation contains a link to the meeting. Choosing that link always starts Amazon Chime in your browser. The same thing happens when you use the Amazon Chime Meetings App for Slack. The following steps explain how to switch to the desktop client.

To switch to the desktop client
  1. In the meeting, on the left control bar, open the More options menu (...) and choose Switch to native desktop app.

  2. Choose Launch this meeting in the native app.

  3. If prompted, choose Open.
