Adjust your Join Preferences
You can adjust when Read will join your meetings by going to Account Settings > Meeting Assistant > Join Preferences:
If you have the "Auto-join meetings" option enabled, you'll need to choose between a couple of further options:
- Under "Meeting Role" you can configure Read to join all of your meetings, or only meetings where you are the host
- Additionally, under "Meeting Type" you can set Read to join internal and external meetings, or internal meetings only.
- Internal meetings are ones where all invited participants share the same domain name for their email address.
- This option is only available if your primary email address with Read is on a non-public email domain (e.g. it is a work email address and not @gmail.com or similar personal email service).
If you have "Auto-join meetings" turned off, then Read will be off by default for all of your meetings. Regardless of the join preferences you have set here, you can always manually turn Read on or off for specific meetings and recurring series from your Calendar page (see below).
Enable or disable Read for specific meetings
If you want to enable or disable Read for select meetings on your calendar, simply:
- Go to your Calendar page (there's a link on the left-hand navigation):
- Toggle the "Add Read?" setting on or off:
- If it's a recurring meeting, you'll have to choose whether to make this change for all future instances or just this specific one:
Please keep in mind that even if you turn "Add Read?" off, others in the meeting could be using Read and have it turned on from their account (check the meeting chat to see who invited Read).
