'Meanwhile' means at the same time. For example:
'John waited for the baggage to arrive. Meanwhile, Mary went to pick up the hire car'.
This suggests that both actions happened simultaneously.
'In the meantime' refers to a temporary situation , usually when you are waiting for something to happen. For example:
'Your computer won't be fixed until the end of the week. In the meantime, you can borrow someone's laptop.'
