Host controls
Manage roles, turn off someone's mic and camera, remove people, and choose whether to leave or end a Glow Meetings meeting for everyone.
As the host, you manage who's in the meeting and what they can do. Open People to see everyone, then select the menu next to a person's name.
Roles#
- Host — the person who started the meeting.
- Co-host — can admit people from the waiting room, turn off someone's mic and camera, remove people and end the meeting.
- Participant — can talk, share video and their screen, chat and react.
- Attendee — can watch, chat and raise their hand, but can't turn on a mic or camera.
The host can change roles with Make co-host, Remove co-host, Make participant and Make attendee.
Turn off someone's mic and camera#
Select Turn off mic & camera for a person. They see "The host turned off your mic and camera" and can still watch, chat and raise a hand. In the people list they're marked Can't speak.
To let them speak again, select Allow mic & camera. They're told they can turn their mic on.
Remove someone#
- Select Remove from meeting next to their name.
- Optionally tick Also lock the meeting.
- Confirm.
They leave right away and can't rejoin this meeting with the same link. Everyone stays encrypted — the keys change as soon as they're out.
Manage hands#
When people raise their hands, they're listed under Hands raised in order. Select Lower all hands to clear them.
Leaving as a host#
When you select Leave, you can choose:
- Stay — go back to the meeting.
- Leave — leave and let the meeting continue. You can rejoin while it's still running.
- End for everyone — everyone is disconnected and the link stops working for guests. You'll be asked to confirm.
If you're the only host or co-host, Glow Meetings warns you that the meeting will end a few minutes after you leave unless someone else is made co-host. Select Make someone co-host to hand over.
If no host or co-host is left, everyone sees a countdown: "No host or co-host is here — this meeting ends in …".
End a meeting from your Meetings page#
For a live meeting you started, open More actions on your Meetings page and choose End for everyone.
