Mic Difficulties

I’m not sure if my mic is on or off while in a Nook Session. The icon doesn’t change on my end symbols or light up in any manner red/green for me to know. I fear interrupting speakers or accidentally have it on without knowing. Thus driving me away from events. Pls fix this ux.

Response from developer

Absolutely, I understand your concern. In the Nook Session, the mic is automatically turned off when you're in the "listener" area. You won't inadvertently interrupt speakers or have your mic on without realizing it. Once you're on the "stage," you'll see a clear "mute" or "unmute" mic icon, giving you full control over your audio. So feel free to participate without worrying about accidental interruptions!

Join now, thank me later!

I’ve been riding with Bookum for a while now. I started as a beta users and the app has come so far. The developers are so receptive to feedback and are building a community for book lovers and content creators. I’ve gotten tons of great recommendations from seeing what others are reading and checking out their reviews. I love to be able to share what I’m reading with a community who gets it.
