Here are some great new features available in Sametime Standard:
New Sametime meeting Leave Meeting button and New leave button for meeting participants:
new End Meeting button options
In a Sametime meeting room, participants have a new
Leave Meeting button which they can click to leave
the current meeting.
Room owners and managers still see an End Meeting
button; they see this button instead of a Leave New End Meeting options for room owners and
Meeting button. The End Meeting button gives the managers:
room owner or manager the option to leave the
meeting or end the meeting for everyone.
New options to automatically mute meeting
participants when they join a call and to start a
video call
When a call from within a meeting room is started, the
meeting room owner now has the option to have all
meeting participants join the call muted. This means
that the voices of everyone on the call except for the
meeting room owner can not be heard.
Room owners also have the flexibility to turn off video
for the call when they return to a meeting room, or to
3. keep the default.
New Sametime meeting active speaker icon
In Sametime meeting rooms, an "active speaker" icon will
now display next to the name of the participant who is
currently speaking during a call.
Additional mobile device support
The new IBM Sametime native client for Apple iPhone and
iPad mobile devices lets you do many things that you do
with Sametime, including participate in chats, retrieve your
chat history, and add new contacts and groups. If you have
Sametime Unified Telephony, you can also make calls.
The optimized browser-based IBM Sametime meetings for
the Apple iPad and Google Android tablets lets you create
new Sametime meeting rooms and participate in existing
ones, directly from your tablet.

4. What's changed
Here is a change to Sametime Standard from the previous release.
Revised Video call control options
During a video call, the wording of the video call controls
has changed so that the meaning is more clear.
• "Pause my video/Resume my video" is now "Share My
Video/ Stop Sharing My Video", (For meetings that
use video only.)
• "Hide my video/Show my video" is now "Preview My
Video/Stop Video Preview"
