CoHost
Publisher can assign host privilege to viewers who are online.
CoHost Assignment
The Publisher can elevate any currently online viewer to Co-Host status during a live conference session. This enables distributed moderation and gives trusted participants administrative control without ending or transferring the session.
Note: Host privileges can only be assigned to viewers who are online at the time of assignment. Offline participants are not eligible until they join the session.
Assigning Host Privileges
Steps
Open the Publisher Panel by tapping the Publisher icon from the top navigation bar.
Under the Added tab, you will see the list of viewers currently in the session.

Locate the viewer you want to elevate and tap Assign CoHost next to their name.
The button appears highlighted (purple) for viewers not yet assigned host access, and grey for those who already have it.
A confirmation dialog will appear asking: "Assign host access to [viewer name]?" Tap Yes to confirm or No to cancel.

Once confirmed, the viewer's status updates and the Co-Host button changes to Revoke Host, indicating active host privileges.
Revoking Host Privileges
The Publisher can remove host access from a Co-Host at any time during the session.
Steps
Open the Publisher Panel and go to the Added tab.
Find the Co-Host whose privileges you want to remove. Their row will show a red Revoke Host button.
