The primary user control options are located at the bottom center of the screen and include:
Camera: Click this to toggle your camera on/off. If off, it will appear with a slash through the icon.
Microphone: Click this to toggle your microphone on/off. If off, it will appear with a slash through the icon.
Send Emoji: Click to share an emoji from the list. It will appear next to your avatar for five seconds
Spatial Audio Settings: This lets you know when a room has spatial audio on or off. If there is a slash through the ear, spatial audio is off in the room, and everyone can hear everyone. If the ear is green without a slash, then spatial audio is on, and you will have to move close to other users in order to hear and talk with them.
