Use Zoom’s ‘Touch up’ feature to look good

Zoom's 'Touch up' feature

Zoom has become a big thing during the pandemic. I was going over the video conferencing app’s settings the other day ahead of a Zoom call and I noticed something. A little button that said ‘Touch up my appearance.’ I liked the sound of that. Here’s what Zoom’s ‘Touch up’ feature is and how to use it.

First, what is the ‘Touch up my appearance’ button? It’s a button that appears to add a filter to change how you look on Zoom. One’s features appear softer, less grainy and overall smoother.

Aside from using this feature, you should also read this post on tips for looking better on video calls. The most basic tips are to pay attention to how you set up your lighting, to bring the camera to your eye level and to look right into the camera (not at yourself or others on screen) when you’re speaking.

    I love this feature as I’m teaching cardio dance on zoom and stretch classes. I was so excited when I found this option a few weeks ago. I do think it helped me look a bit better. Olivia you look just as pretty in both….
