Overview
Immersive View is a viewing option available to leaders (hosts) in the latest version of Zoom. When the leader selects this view, the host may move participant webcams onto a selected background, creating a unified look for all present in the session. For example, all broadcasting webcams could be dragged and dropped onto an image of a classroom.
Before exploring this option, please review the following.
- Leaders may place up to 25 broadcasting webcams onto an image.
- Immersive View is not available during a Share Screen activity.
- Immersive View is not included in the Zoom Cloud session recording. The recording will default to either Gallery View or Speaker View when recording to the Zoom Cloud. A local recording can include the Immersive View (we recommend testing this on the device).
