Ekr,

I run Sierra (10.12) and regularly have problems with Webex crashing on startup.  I use the latest versions of Safari and Crome.  I don’t think this problem is limited to old versions of the OS.  I do fall back to the web version, but it’s UI is lacking IMHO.

It also doesn’t support IPv6.

Bob
