The microphone and camera switches sit in the bar at the top of the room. A crossed-out icon means off. What you switch there applies to everyone in the room.

​
Mute yourself

Click the microphone icon. It is crossed out, and the others no longer hear you. A second click makes you heard again.

​
Turn the camera on and off

Click the camera icon. When it is crossed out, the others no longer see your picture.

​
Pick another device

If you have more than one camera or microphone connected, a small arrow sits next to the icon. Use it to pick the device your browser should use, for example a headset instead of the built-in microphone.

​
If you hear nothing

If your browser blocks the sound, Sound is off appears at the top. Click Turn on sound.

​
More settings

Click the gear (Meeting settings) and open Audio / Video:
  • Background Blur softens the room behind you.
  • Noise Cancellation keeps keyboard and room noise out of your microphone.
  • Viewing Mode turns this device into a watch-only seat, without sound or camera pictures from the room.
Both filters only appear when your browser supports them. You change your name in the same menu under Change Name.

​
Share your screen

Share screen shows the others your screen, and Stop sharing screen ends it. Safari on iPhone and iPad cannot share a screen, so the button is missing there.
If you see no microphone or camera switches at all, you are in a pure live stream or in Viewing Mode. See Join a live session.
