# Close the presentation/enlarge the webcams

> Any user can close the presentation area to enlarge shared webcams, or disable incoming webcams to save bandwidth.

Any user can [close the presentation](#close-the-presentation) to give shared webcams the full screen — useful for a video chat-style session. You can also [disable incoming webcams](#disable-incoming-webcams) to save bandwidth on a slow connection.

<Note>
  You can only close the presentation when at least one webcam is being shared.

To restore the presentation, select the **Presentation** icon in the lower-right corner.

<Note>
  There is no hard limit on the number of webcams that can be shared, but bandwidth is the practical limit. With many webcams, some may stop updating.

## Disable incoming webcams

To turn off all incoming webcam streams — useful on mobile or low-bandwidth connections — open the **Settings** menu.
