摘要

Embodiments of the invention are directed to systems, methods and computer program products for providing functionality to users during a hold period prior to conducting a customer-service video conference. In specific embodiments of the present invention, the user is able to exit the video conferencing application during the hold period and be subsequently notified when the hold period is about to end and the video conference about to start. Such exiting of the video conference application and subsequent notification of the imminence of the video conference, allows for the user to perform other functions/execute other applications on the device while being assured that the user will have opportunity to conduct the video conference when the user's position in the hold period queue indicates they are next in line for conducting the video conference.
