📤Leave the Gather Tab

By default, Auto Idle Muting is turned on in your User Settings. This means that when you click on a program or browser tab outside of Gather, your audio will automatically mute, and your video will automatically turn off. They will turn on again when you return to the Gather tab.

The Auto Idle Mute message displays the first time you return to your Gather Space after being in another tab or program.

If you'd like to leave your audio and video on while you're in other tabs or programs, go to Settings (cog icon in the Left Nav Menu or keyboard shortcut Ctrl/⌘+P), and in the Audio & Video section, toggle off Auto Idle Mute.

Tip: If you want to hear any time someone walks up to you in your Gather Space, turn Auto Idle Muting off.

If you want to keep your audio and video stream on while you are in other tabs or programs, open your Settings, and in the Audio & Video section of the User tab, toggle off Auto Idle Muting.

PLEASE set Auto Idle Muting off if you want to share your screen!
