Zoom on Android Tablet

[michaelw]

Does anyone with an Android tablet know how to get all participants view working and does it display more than eight views?

On yesterdays Treeleaf Special Event I could only see the top of Shodo’s head as there were only eight participants displayed using ‘gallery’ plus the annoying floating view of me. According to t’interweb I should be able to see a max of forty-nine views ‘by swiping left on my floating view’ (?). As a result the only time I can tell if someone else has joined is when those visible return bow otherwise I cannot see the whole group.

There is no simulation available so the only time I can search around the settings and experiment is during live sessions and with Jukai coming up me looming over the screen might not appreciated.

Hi.
I believe there is a set limit of participants you can see on one screen, and the swiping left will simply reveal a secondary windows with the same maximum number of squares visible. On a tiny tablet screen it would be quite impossible to squeeze in 20 participants, like we had yesterday and make them visible, so you’re a little stuck with what tablet view offers.
You can, I believe, pin a speaker for yourself, so that they’re always the first displayed square.

It is the same for me on an IPad. Only 9 visible at a time. Must sweep to see others.
