with join.me

presenter.

Set your password

Personalize
Put your name on it
After setting your password, you’ll be asked to create a
personal link and background. Your link is the URL people will
use to join your meeting.
It can be anything so long as it is at least 9 characters long.
Your background is the photo that folks see when they’re
waiting for your meeting to start.
Neither is permanent, so feel free to change your mind again and
again.
On occasion, you might want to use the one-time code, so it’s there for your convenience.
