Important Notes

• Free tests are for testing only and can't be modified. The only thing you can do is reset the test video, which deletes the test recording permanently.
• All other settings can't be changed for test events: the link, the date and time (a test can't be scheduled), the privacy settings and everything else stay as they are.
• You cannot use a free test as your main event or for actual guests. It streams to your private test link, which guests on your event link don’t see.

Additional Tips

• You can test as many times as you need before your real event.
• If you are ready to go live for your actual event, make sure to purchase and set up your main event, as free tests are not meant for real guests.
