You can host meetings on Connect4 in a variety of ways whether it be in person, via a phonecall, using a third party video platform like Zoom or using Connect4's own web based video conferencing.

You can blur your native Connect4 video or add a background to your Connect4 calls for free by utilising a third party tool such as SnapCamera or Mmhmm.

How to blur your background

Simply select the blur icon on your screen whilst in a native Connect4 video call.

How to change your video background on Connect4 with Mmhmm

  1. Firstly download third party tool Mmhmm, which is a video presentation app.

  2. Once downloaded you may need to refresh your browser you are using Connect4 with, especially if using the Chrome web browser.

  3. Give it a try with your Personal Pod meeting room- by selecting 'My personal pod'.

  4. Click the big mint green, 'Connect' button.

  5. Change Video camera device

Note: the Mmhmm app needs to be open in order for the Connect4 video feed to show. You also change your background via the Mmhmm application as opposed to within Connect4.

How do clients change their background on Connect4?

If your clients or customers wish to have a blurred background or a background slide they will too currently need a third party tool. There is a feature on the Connect4 roadmap where this will become possible without the need to use a third party tool.

For further advice on Mmhmm please read their support article available here.
