Can I use a virtual background?

Last updated

Yes. In a session, click the Settings icon at the bottom, then click Virtual Background to blur your background (with an adjustable Blur Strength), pick one of the default backgrounds, or upload your own image. The moderator can allow or turn off virtual backgrounds for participants.

Because background processing uses extra CPU, turn it off if your video becomes choppy on an older device.

Did that not cover it?

Search the rest of the help center, or send the question to support and a human who uses the platform daily will answer it.
