Turning on your webcam or microphone is super easy!

Once you access your unique Admin join link, you will be brought to a screen where you will see options to turn your webcam and/or microphone on.
​
You'll be able to choose the camera, microphone as well as the output device, and choose if you want to apply a virtual background before you click Go On Stage.

You'll also be able to choose your devices after going on stage and turn them on. Hovering over the mic or webcam option will show a pop-up arrow that you can click on to see all available options


Once you have selected your device. Click on the device icon to enable it.
​


You can also achieve this by clicking the Settings (gear) icon in menu bar to set up your microphone and speaker for audio output as well as run a system check for a smooth experience.

Any Admin with presentation abilities (either a Host or a Presenter) would be allowed to enable their device. Webcams are supported with a 16:9 ratio.

Mobile Devices

Managing your webcam and microphone from your mobile device follows the same instructions. Once you click on Join Room from your Event, you will see options to select the microphone and webcam you would like to enable.

NOTE: If prompted, you will need to grant permissions to Demio to use your microphone and webcam.
​


You will also see Go On Stage at the bottom of your screen which will take you immediately on stage, as well as you will see the option to Join The Room, which puts you inside the event room, but not on stage:

Limitations

NOTE: Apple's continuity feature is not supported at this time.
