Accept Guests Waiting in the Lobby

When your Studio settings require Guests to wait in the Lobby, the Host or Producer must allow Guests (and other Producers) into the Studio. Follow the steps below to let in Guests.

NOTE:
You must change a Studio's General settings to require Guests to wait in the Lobby.

Step by step:

  1. Log in to your account.
  2. Join a Studio as a Host or as a Producer.
  3. When a Guest or Producer requests to join the Studio, a popup displays their name:

  4. To let them in, click the green check (computer) or tap Accept (mobile device).
    NOTE:
    If you accidentally reject a Guest or Producer's request, they can repeat the request.
TIPS:
On a computer, the Studio's sidebar also lists all participants waiting in the Lobby. The participants icon participants-users.svg in the top right corner also displays a blue dot when someone is waiting in the Lobby. Tap it to open the sidebar and let them join.

The Host and any Producers using the Riverside mobile app also see an alert at the top of the screen and can accept or deny a participant's request to join the Studio.
