  • There is plenty of light for zoom.

    No there isn’t, if you have to adjust the brightness digitally the camera itself is not getting enough light based on what it was designed for.

    Teams does have a brightness setting, it’s just a toggle rather than a slider. If that still isn’t enough, then you are sitting in a pitch black room. I just tested this, with every light in my room off, including the overhead and the direct facial lighting, the teams toggle is enough to make me reasonably visible in the light from my screen alone.

    I don’t need the toggle on at all with an overhead light on, and the annoying shadows from the overhead room light go away with my facial lighting on.

The basic understand for apps by users it that notification settings exist. They may not know that there is a specific option to turn one specific type of notification on, but they should know they can turn shit off.

    I’ve never noticed an issue with the muting thing, It’s a fraction of a second when joining to pick what settings I want for that meeting which does vary so it’s helpful to have.

    Brightness settings for Camera… holy shit… Light yourself properly. Ring lights are $30 on amazon, get one and look actually professional when attending your meetings.


  • I literally use this tool on a daily basis, it works very well. I’m not spouting anything marketing related, only how I see and use it.

    A communications platform allows you to talk to each other via text, voice, video.
