Adding a virtual background or blurring your own is useful in settings where you don't want to show your actual background. In Zoom's video settings you may upload any image from your device to use it as a virtual background. While One-Click does not have the option to upload a virtual background, it does have the option to blur and that can be found in the link below.

We recommend using a high resolution landscape image, though you will be able to experiment with your preference and change your background as often as you'd like.
