How to create a HighFive moderated meeting

Our video conferencing platform, HighFive, have released a 'Moderated Meetings' feature, which provides you with more control over other participants in larger meetings and lets you select which participants can be speakers or can share screen during the meeting.

With Moderated Meetings, Highfive has three roles for meeting participants:

Moderators - Participants who have the ability to ensure that only the appropriate people can speak, broadcast video, or share their screen to other participants in the meeting.
- At the time of launch in April 2020, the Moderator controls are available only for in-browser and desktop app users. Moderators joining on Android, iOS will join as speakers and will not have moderator controls.
Speakers - Participants who are given permission by a Moderator to participate in the meeting (i.e. they can speak, broadcast video, or share their screen).
Listeners - Everyone else in a call. Listeners can see and hear the meeting. They cannot speak, broadcast video, or share their screen. However, they can always use the "Raise Hand" button to ask for permission from the Moderator to participate.

Moderated Meetings are ideal for meetings where a small group of people will be broadcasting to a much larger audience. For meetings that are more conversational in nature, we recommend that you use an original (non-moderated) Highfive meeting.
