No setting to hide self view

There is no option in settings or preferences to hide self-view in meetings. It can be done manually while in a meeting, but you have to do it each time you join a meeting. There should be an option to hide it for all meetings by default.

    Hello @robinmdash!

    There are a few settings that will allow you to manager host and participant video defaulting to off. You can find the settings here--> zoom.us/profile/setting

    @Happytohelp123 I'm not trying to turn my video off. I'm trying to "Hide self-view" — hiding my own video from the list of participants.

    Hello @robinmdash Sorry, I initially misunderstood! There is a hide self view option however this option will only hide the self view from you and not the participants--> hide my video

    However your additional feedback is awesome and I would recommend going and placing this as a request to our Product team so that hopefully it can be added as a feature in an upcoming release.  Please add your feedback at zoom.us/feed. Thanks 😃

    There should also be an option for Zoom admins or hosts to turn off self-view off for all participants in a meeting or in all meetings for an organization.
