Hello there! Today, I would like to reveal an awesome tip that I just found out – how to modify the backdrop on your mobile device in Zoom. As Zoom has become a vital tool for virtual meetings and video calls, it’s always refreshing to add a personal touch to your virtual environment. Without further ado, let’s delve into the specifics and discover how to personalize your Zoom background on your mobile phone.
Step 1: Update your Zoom app
Before we begin, make sure you have the latest version of the Zoom app installed on your mobile device. You can download it from the App Store or Google Play Store if you haven’t done so already.
Step 2: Open the Zoom app
Once you have the app installed, open it on your mobile device. You will be greeted with the login screen.
Step 3: Login to your Zoom account
Enter your login credentials to access your Zoom account. If you don’t have an account yet, you can easily sign up for a free one.
Step 4: Start or join a meeting
To change your background, you need to either start a new meeting or join an existing one. Tap on the “New Meeting” button if you want to create a new meeting or select the “Join” option if you want to join an existing meeting.
Step 5: Access the background settings
Once you are in a meeting, tap on the screen to reveal the meeting controls. Look for the “…” icon at the bottom right corner of the screen and tap on it. This will open a menu with additional options.
Step 6: Choose a background
In the menu that appears, select the “Virtual Background” option. You will be taken to a page where you can choose from a list of default backgrounds provided by Zoom.
Step 7: Add your own background
If you want to add your own background, tap on the “+” button at the top right corner of the screen. This will allow you to upload an image from your device’s gallery as your Zoom background.
Step 8: Adjust and preview your background
Once you have selected or uploaded your desired background, you can adjust it by pinching and dragging the image on the screen. You can also use the preview option to see how the background will look before applying it.
Step 9: Apply your background
When you are satisfied with your background selection, tap on the “Apply” button to set it as your Zoom background. You will then be able to see the new background during your meetings and video calls.
