# Quick start guide


The following tutorial explains how to navigate in the Amazon Chime mobile app.

**The navigation bar**  
Use the navigation bar at the bottom of the Amazon Chime mobile app window to move around the app.   

![\[The navigation bar at the bottom of the Amazon Chime mobile app screen.\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime/latest/ug/images/mobile-nav-bar.png)

You can join meetings, view your call history, send instant messages, and manage your chat rooms and contacts.   
Choosing an item on the navigation bar opens its corresponding *view*. Each view contains *pages*. For example, when you choose the **Calls** view, the **Call history** page appears. The app displays the **Meetings** view by default.  
On certain pages in the app, the navigation bar won't be visible. For example, the navigation bar disappears when you message someone. To see the navigation bar, choose the Back button on your device.

**The Answer control**  
When a meeting or person calls you on Amazon Chime, the **Answer** control appears.  

![\[The Answer control that appears when a meeting calls.\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime/latest/ug/images/mobile-widget.png)

The control appears in any view within the app. On iOS devices, the control can also appear on the lock screen. To use the Answer control from the lock screen on iOS devices, see [Meeting and call settings](app-options.md#mobile-meetings-settings)

**Actions menus**  
You can take multiple actions on your contacts, messages, and chat rooms. To see the actions you can take on a given item, tap the item to open its actions menu. For example, a **Message from** action menu appears when you tap any chat message:  

![\[The Message from menu that appears when you tap a message.\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime/latest/ug/images/mobile-tap-menu.png)

The commands on the menu vary depending on the item that you tap. When you tap to open the **Message from** action menu, you can copy or quote a message, or cancel to close the menu.

**Ellipsis menus**  
When you join a meeting, a vertical ellipsis icon appears in the upper-right corner of the app window. ![\[Vertical ellipsis icon representing a menu or more options.\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime/latest/ug/images/mobile-kebab-menu.png)   
When you chat with someone or enter a chat room, a horizontal ellipsis icon appears in the upper-right corner. ![\[Three blue dots arranged horizontally, representing an ellipsis menu icon.\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime/latest/ug/images/mobile-horiz-ellipse.jpg)   
Choosing either type of ellipsis opens a menu of options for meetings and chats. To learn more about these options, see [Additional meeting actions](mobile-mtg-options.md).

# Signing in to the mobile app


The steps in this section explain how to sign in to the Amazon Chime mobile app. To complete these steps, you must have a registered Amazon Chime user account, and you must use your account credentials.

**Note**  
You can join Amazon Chime meetings without a registered user account, or by using an alternate method to join a meeting. For example, you can use the phone number in a meeting invitation to dial in to a meeting. However, when you do that, *you only join the meeting*. You have limited ways to participate in the meeting, and the other Amazon Chime features, such as chat rooms, remain unavailable. For more information about joining meetings without an account, see [Joining meetings without an Amazon Chime user account](join-anonymous.md), later in this guide.

**To sign in with an account**

1. Start the Amazon Chime mobile app.

1. Enter the email address that you use to sign in to your Amazon Chime account.

1. Choose **Sign in / Sign up**.

1. Provide your user name and password when prompted.

# Joining scheduled meetings


In Amazon Chime, you have a *scheduled meeting* when someone puts the meeting on a calendar and invites at least one attendee. If your administrator enables auto-calling, the meeting calls you just before it starts.

To join a scheduled meeting in the Amazon Chime mobile app, you first need to install the app from Google Play or the App Store. Once you sign in to the app, Amazon Chime notifies you when a meeting starts, even if you don't have the app open. You can join meetings while connected to a network, or by dialing in from your phone.

As a best practice, install your calendar app on your phone. That allows you to look up meeting invitations and schedule meetings. For more information about scheduling meetings, see [Scheduling meetings](mobile-scheduling.md).

**Note**  
If you're a host or delegate for a moderated meeting, the meeting only starts when you join. For more information, see [Scheduling moderated meetings](moderate-meeting.md).

# Joining a meeting


While connected to either a cellular or WiFi network, the Amazon Chime mobile app automatically uses your device's network connection to receive calls. 

If your Amazon Chime administrator enables auto-calling for a meeting, you hear a ring notification when the meeting starts. The **Answer** control also appears on your device's screen. The **Answer** control also displays when someone calls you for an instant meeting.

The following sets of steps explain different ways to join a meeting using auto-call.

**To join an auto-call meeting**

1. When the meeting calls, the **Join meeting** page appears and displays a set of meeting options. Choose **Answer**.

   —OR—

   Choose one of the options, such as **Mute**, and then choose **Answer**.
**Note**  
If you join a hosted meeting, you can't use the **Answer** control's options until the host joins.

1. If you miss the ring notification, or you accidentally decline the call, the **Meetings** page lists the current meeting in progress. You are also shown any meetings scheduled to start within the next 30 minutes. Choose a meeting to join it.

**To join a scheduled meeting from all other views**
+ When the meeting calls you, the **Answer** control appears. To join the call, choose **Answer**. To dismiss the call, choose **Decline**.

**To join a meeting when your device is locked (iOS only)**

1. When the meeting calls you, the **Answer** control appears on the lock screen. Your device also plays a ring notification.

1. From the **Answer** control, choose **Answer**. Your device may prompt you to unlock it before opening Amazon Chime.

# Dialing in to a meeting


If the meeting organizer includes dial-in information in a meeting invitation, you can dial in to the meeting using your phone.

**To dial in to a meeting**

1. On the **Join meeting** screen, or from the **Answer** control, choose **Use phone for audio**. 

1. From the **Use phone for audio** page, choose **Dial-in now**.

# Setting a meeting to call you


You can use the **Call me** feature to have a meeting call your phone just before it starts. Follow these steps to use **Call me** to join a meeting:

**To use **Call me****

1. From the **Join meeting** screen, or on the **Answer** control while elsewhere in the app, choose **Use phone for audio**. 

1. Choose the **Call me** tab.

1. Enter your country code and phone number.

   For a list of the country codes that Amazon Chime supports with the **Call me** feature, see [Country requirements for phone numbers](https://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime-sdk/latest/ag/phone-country-reqs.html) in the *Amazon Chime SDK Administration Guide*.

1. Choose **Call me**.

# Letting others know you're running late


You can let the other attendees know you're running late to a meeting by using the **Running late** control. This control appears on the **Join meeting** screen.

**Note**  
If you join a moderated meeting, you can't use the **Running late** control until the moderator joins the meeting.

**To let others know you're late**
+ On the **Join meeting** screen, choose **Running late**. Then choose how long Amazon Chime should wait before its rings you again for the meeting.

  The other meeting attendees can see your name in the **Running late** section of the meeting roster. They can also see the length of time you selected when you chose the **Running late** feature. The meeting rings you again after your chosen time elapses. 

# Messaging all meeting attendees


If you think you'll be late to a meeting, or need to contact other attendees, you can message them without joining that meeting. 

**To message all attendees**

1. On the **Join meeting** screen, choose **Message all**.

1. From the meeting chat control, enter your message and choose the **Send** icon.

# Starting instant meetings


To start a meeting immediately instead of scheduling one in advance, you can start an instant meeting. You can start instant meetings from multiple places in the app. However, if you want to invite multiple attendees, you must start the meeting from the **Meetings** view.

Instant meetings provide the same controls as scheduled meetings. For more information about using those controls, see [Using the Amazon Chime mobile app during a meeting](mobile-in-meeting.md).

**To start in instant meeting in Meetings view**

1. On the navigation bar, choose **Meetings**.

1. From the **Meetings** page, choose **Instant**.

1. From the **Instant meeting** page's list of contacts, choose one or more contacts, or choose a chat room.

1. To call the chosen contacts and start the meeting, choose **Start** from the upper-right corner of the app window.

**To start an instant meeting in all other views**
+ Choose a contact, and on the menu that appears, choose **Call**.
**Note**  
You can also choose a chat room instead of a contact. When you do, the meeting calls all members of that room.

**To schedule a meeting**

1. Choose **Meetings**, and then choose **Schedule**.

1. On the **Schedule meetings** page, read the scheduling tips, and then choose **Schedule** to open your calendar app.

A crown icon, ![\[Icon of a small crown.\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime/latest/ug/images/crown-icon.png), represents the meeting organizer or host. 

The microphone indicates whether an attendee is muted. ![\[Image of a microphone with a diagonal slash over it.\]](http://docs.aws.amazon.com/chime/latest/ug/images/mobile-mic-icon-muted.png)
