# How many webcams can I share in a meeting?

> BigBlueButton is not designed as a purely video conferencing application, but rather it focuses on engagement with students.

BigBlueButton is not designed as a purely video conferencing application, but rather it focuses on engagement with students (breakout rooms, shared notes, multi-user whiteboard, etc.).

For most BigBlueButton Enhanced accounts, you can share webcams in BigBlueButton and students can see each other by unlocking the **See other viewers webcams** (in the [lock settings](/docs/help/moderator-guide/lock-viewers-ability-to-use-their-micwebcamchatshared-notes)).

BigBlueButton will dynamically adjust the number of webcams moderators and viewers see based on the number of users in the session.

| **Number of Users** | **Webcams moderator can view** | **Webcams viewers can view** |
| ------------------- | ------------------------------ | ---------------------------- |
| >30                 | 25                             | 6                            |
| >40                 | 20                             | 5                            |
| >50                 | 16                             | 4                            |
| >60                 | 8                              | 4                            |
| >70                 | 8                              | 3                            |
| >80                 | 8                              | 2                            |
| >100                | 8                              | 2                            |

See this article for further information - [Options for giving students visibility of other student's webcams](/docs/help/premium/options-for-giving-students-visibility-of-other-students-webcams)

Right now, there are no hard-coded limits in the webcam sharing, but the above guidelines will ensure you and your students have a good experience.

If a student is on low bandwidth, they [can turn off webcams for their client](/docs/help/user-guide/access-the-options-menu) via the Options menu.

Viewers now see (up to) five (5) webcams at a time.
