Meeting Features

MikroMeet includes the essentials for small self-hosted meetings without adding a hosted conferencing platform.

Create a meeting, copy the invite link, and send it to participants. Invite links use the ?join= URL parameter so they work well on mobile and desktop browsers.

Use advanced options before creating a room to add a meeting title, start time, and duration. MikroMeet reserves the room, shows a shareable join link, and can download an .ics calendar invite for the scheduled time.

Open the chat panel to send text messages during a call. Use Reply on a message to keep side discussions connected to the original message.

Use the reactions control to send quick visual reactions during a meeting. The reaction appears as a short tile overlay for you and other participants.

Use the attachment button in chat to send a file to the other participants in the room. Recipients can accept or reject each transfer before the file chunks are sent.

Use Share screen to replace your camera video with a shared display. Press the control again, or stop sharing from the browser prompt, to return to your camera.

Moderators can start a local browser recording. Recording is saved as a .webm file when stopped, and other participants see a recording indicator while recording is active.

Participants can raise or lower their hand from the meeting controls. The raised-hand state appears on the video tile and in the participant list.

Double-click a remote participant video to pin it locally. Double-click again to return to the normal grid. Pinning is local to your browser and does not change anyone else’s layout.

The first participant becomes moderator. Moderators can:

  • Lock or unlock the room
  • Admit or reject people from the waiting room
  • Admit all waiting users
  • Mute or unmute participants
  • Remove participants
  • Promote another participant to moderator

MikroMeet shows connection quality and can disable incoming video when the connection becomes poor. Participants can also manually disable incoming video to preserve bandwidth.

If the signaling connection drops, MikroMeet shows reconnect status, rejoins the room when the WebSocket returns, and rebuilds peer connections. If a camera or microphone is unavailable when joining, MikroMeet falls back to the remaining device where possible so the participant can still enter the room.
