In Airtime rooms, there is a hierarchy of roles to ensure that everyone in the room has a great experience. The order goes Room Founder, Admin, Host, Member, Non-member (or Guest). Room Founders can assign Admins to their rooms to manage membership, room settings, and moderation settings. Hosts are the ones that will be interacting and engaging with Members in the room, and they have more permissions than members. Keep reading to learn which permissions each role has in an Airtime room.
Room Founder
The Room Founder is the person who founded and created the room. They can add and remove Admin(s) in their room.
How to add an Admin to your room:
- First, invite the person as a host or member to your room.
- Then, change their role from host or member to Admin.
- Enter your room.
- Tap the room's name in the center of your screen.
- Tap the person's picture that you'd like to make an Admin.
- Under "Membership," tap "Edit Room Role," and select Admin.
Admins
Admins run the show behind the scenes in your rooms, ensuring that everything operates safely and smoothly. To do so, they have access to more features than hosts and regular room members. Admins can change room settings, permissions, and assign roles below them.
- Admins can manage membership of hosts, members, and non-members (aka guests).
- Admins cannot add or remove other Admins - only the room founder can add/remove Admins.
How to add a host to the room:
- Enter the room.
- Tap the room's name in the center of your screen.
- First, invite the person to the room.
- Tap the person's picture that you'd like to make a host.
- Under "Membership," tap "Edit Room Role," and select Host.
- If they're already a member of the room, they'll automatically be added as a host, otherwise, they'll have to accept your host invitation.
Removing a host
- Enter your room.
- Tap the room's name in the center of your screen.
- Tap the person's picture that you'd like to remove as a host.
- Under "Membership," tap "Edit Room Role," and select Member.
Moderation
Below you will find the default moderation settings for all public rooms on Airtime. Any changes you make to these moderation settings may impact the overall experience in that room for both hosts and members alike.
“Send Messages”
By default, all members of a room can send chat messages. Restricting who can send messages in this room to "Hosts" allows only hosts to send chat messages within the room.
“Send Reactions and Gifs”
By default, all members of a room can send reactions. Restricting who can send reactions in this room to "Hosts" allows only hosts to send chat reactions within the room.
“Go on Stage”
In public rooms, by default, only room hosts can go live and share their video/audio stream. Changing who can go live to "Members" would allow all room members to go live.
“Post Media”
In public rooms, by default, all members of a room can post media. Changing who can post media to "Hosts" allows only hosts to post media.
"Upload Media and Links"
In public rooms, by default, only room hosts can upload media and links.
“Control the Stage”
In public rooms, by default, only room hosts can control the stage. Changing who can control the stage to "Members" would allow all room members to control the stage. Changing who can control the stage to "Everyone" would allow all room members and guests to control the stage.
“Manage Membership”
In public rooms, by default, only room hosts can manage room membership. Hosts can approve requests to join, remove, and ban people.
“Edit Room Settings”
In public rooms, by default, only the founder of the room and Admins can edit room settings. Changing who can manage membership to "Hosts" would allow hosts to manage that edit that room's settings. Changing who can edit room settings to "Members" would allow all room members to edit room settings. As a best practice, we recommend only Admins have permission to edit room settings.
