User Profile Completion Tracker

  

Now, users can complete their user profile to enhance their Coviu experience. Coviu Essentials, Standard and Premium plan users will see a tracker that indicates how complete your profile is which takes into account providing a photo, mobile number, role, and specialty information. 

Users with access to multiple clinics are now also able to set the role and specialty information per clinic, separate from their user profile. The role and specialty information is used to provide relevant Coviu support and communications.

In-Call Mute Function

 

Call hosts now have the ability to mute participants during a call. This will allow hosts to manage speaking contributions in a call, particularly when it comes to group call scenarios. Whilst the call host will be able to mute any participant in a call, only the participants can unmute themselves due to privacy regulations.
