Using Virtual Backgrounds in Engage

Meeting hosts using the iPad or Windows app, as well as attendees joining an Engage meeting via the Windows Engage Attendee app, can upload a graphic to serve as a virtual background during a meeting. Virtual backgrounds enhance the meeting experience by enabling hosts and attendees to display an image or video as their background, rather than the natural background of their environment.
