Webex App - Make Calls with your Desk Phone
When you're connected to your desk phone from Webex App, you can dial a number or make a call in Webex App and your call goes through your phone. Webex App acts like a remote control for your phone so you don't need to shift your focus away from your computer when you want to make a call.

If you're in desk phone control mode, you can use the dial pad on Webex App to enter DTMF tones so you can enter codes to join meetings, choose voicemail options, and navigate IVR (Interactive Voice Response) systems.
