Background Effects
Background effects help when the room is visually distracting even though the meeting should stay on camera. They are best used to reduce distraction, not to hide poor lighting, poor network health, or the wrong camera choice.
Best uses
Section titled “Best uses”- Home and shared spaces where the background is distracting but not sensitive.
- Customer or interview meetings where a cleaner visual frame helps focus.
Limits to keep in mind
Section titled “Limits to keep in mind”- Effect availability depends on device capability and platform support.
- Heavy visual effects can cost performance on lower-powered devices.
- Video quality and network adaptation still matter more than any effect when the connection is unstable.
