How To Turn Off Mirror On Zoom

How to Turn Off Mirror on Zoom

Mirror on Zoom allows you to preview your video before joining a meeting, but it can be distracting for some users. Turning it off is a simple process that takes only a few seconds. Here's how to do it:

1. Join or Start a Zoom Meeting: Launch the Zoom application and join or start a meeting as usual.

2. Access the Video Settings: Once in the meeting, click on the small arrow next to the "Stop Video" button in the bottom-left corner of the screen. This will open a drop-down menu.

3. Disable Mirror Effect: In the drop-down menu that appears, uncheck the option "Mirror My Video." This will immediately turn off the mirror effect on your video.

4. Confirm the Change: You will notice that your video is no longer mirrored. The text below the video window will now display "Original View."

5. Verify the Effect: Wave your hand or make a gesture in front of the camera. You should now see the accurate movement of your hand, without the mirrored effect.

Turning off the mirror on Zoom can improve the accuracy of non-verbal cues and make it feel more natural for both you and the meeting participants. By following these simple steps, you can ensure that your video presentation is not affected by the mirror effect.
