# \&miconlyoption

Sender-Side Option! ([`&push`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/push.md), [`&room`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/room.md))

## Aliases

* `&moo`

## Details

Based on user feedback, I'm testing the concept of a "join with mic-only" button. You can enable it with `&miconlyoption`. It's exactly the same as join with video, except the video device is not selected by default. When used, a mic only button shows if a guest joining a room, and if [`&audiodevice=0`](/advanced-settings/setup-parameters/audiodevice.md) is not present. Hoping this will give more users courage to click the join button, but if it causes issues, I may revert.\
