Hey, It looks like the self appearance is mirrored in the web sdk. This has been a long standing issue and a big pain point for the users. Can we change it? Thanks, Utsav ---

Hi, @utsav, Thank you for posting in the Developer Forum. Are you able to provide a screenshot of the behavior you are seeing and the steps to reproduce it ? Looking forward to your response. Best, Donte ---

Hi @donte.zoom ! These are the steps : 1. Login to a zoom meeting on the web SDK 2. Raise your right hand (your opposite hand appears raised in the video) ---

Hi, @utsav, Thank you for posting in the Developer Forum. There’s no way to do this currently however we will work on including it in a future release. Please make sure to subscribe to our [blog](https://blog.zoom.us/), and [change log](https://marketplace.zoom.us/docs/changelog) for the latest news, updates, and fixes. If you are looking for a work around, please see this post: > [@I want to know how can I turn on self mirroring in browser using zoom web SDK](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/i-want-to-know-how-can-i-turn-on-self-mirroring-in-browser-using-zoom-web-sdk/48788/2): > > Hi @gobinda, Usually this is managed at the user level and is something that is changed locally within their webcam settings, however it is something that is [expected in a future release](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/is-it-possible-to-manage-mirroring-of-the-self-preview-video/9387/2). If you’re wanting a quick and dirty solution to locally mirror your webcam (it will not broadcast mirrored), then please inject the below CSS into your stylesheets to flip the image horizontally. #main-video, #suspension-video { transform: scaleX(-1); } Thanks, Alex Please let me know if this helps. Best, Donte ---

If you can prioritise it in your roadmap, would be very very helpful. A lot of queries are coming up around this not just from developers - but more than that, users are also finding it confusing to see themselves mirrored on the screen. Please help ! ---

Hey @utsav , Thanks for your feedback, we will work on a setting for this in the Web SDK. 🙂 In the meantime you can use this work around: > [@I want to know how can I turn on self mirroring in browser using zoom web SDK](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/i-want-to-know-how-can-i-turn-on-self-mirroring-in-browser-using-zoom-web-sdk/48788/2): > > Hi @gobinda, Usually this is managed at the user level and is something that is changed locally within their webcam settings, however it is something that is [expected in a future release](https://devforum.zoom.us/t/is-it-possible-to-manage-mirroring-of-the-self-preview-video/9387/2).
