However, most of us cannot make sure we have a clean and tidy background while making video calls on Zoom all the time. If you’re ashamed or getting distracted by the dirty mess behind you, here is the coolest tip to get a fancy background on Zoom in a blink of an eye. 

How to apply a virtual background on Zoom

In case you're using a mid-end to high-end laptop with Intel Core i5 or i7, you can apply the virtual background no matter how messy your room is. If your laptop has a lower system, you might need a green backdrop to meet the requirements.  Check out the details requirements to apply virtual background on Zoom at here.

Here are some easy steps to apply a virtual background on Zoom for laptop using iOS or Windows system:

• Open up your Zoom client
• Click on the gear “Setup” icon on the upper-right corner

• Select “Virtual Background” in the left-hand menu

• You will see some default background from Zoom. Choose the one you want to use.

If you want to use your own background, click the 'add image' button to upload your background. If you see a message that your laptop is incapable of processing the virtual background, check 'I have a green screen' and get yourself one to experience cool virtual effects.

You can also change your background amid the meeting by clicking on the up-arrow symbol next to the 'stop video' icon on the bottom left. Select “Choose a virtual background...” and follow the similar steps above.

Now you don't have to worry about cleaning your room before the meeting. The next step is to improve your video calls within 5 minutes.
