Participants Steps:

1. Join the scheduled Zoom meeting.

2. When the presenter shares the Mentimeter app in Zoom, the voting view will show up automatically, so you can simply participate, vote and answer questions in the same view.

Using Mentimeter in breakout rooms

The Mentimeter Zoom integration does not have specific features for breakout rooms, but there are ways to make it work.

Running one Menti in different rooms will work, but it will mean that all rooms will see the same slide at the same time. You can also run the Menti in Audience pace, which would leave the control to the rooms, but will make it possible for users to go through the slides themselves and skip ahead of the presenter.

You can learn more about pacing in this article.
