In the right-hand side panel, in the participants tab, next to each participant is a microphone or webcam icon, depending on the choice(s) made by the user.

I've noticed two problems:

  • Bug: In the screenshot below, the second person from the top is using his microphone and webcam, but he's the only person using his webcam among all the participants. So all the other webcam icons are actually a bug. The 5th person from the top has a microphone icon, which luckily is correct, as she only uses her microphone (as do all the other people, with the exception of the first person mentioned, who uses her microphone AND webcam).
  • Inadequate UI/UX: currently, if you ignore the bug, only one icon is displayed (microphone or webcam, but never both). This is inconsistent and not precise enough, because before joining the call (and during the call) you can choose to use the microphone only, the webcam only, or both. For greater consistency, accuracy and therefore a better user experience, if both are used, we should have two icons (microphone and webcam) displayed side by side.
  • To make things even better, while we're at it: it would be nice if a 3rd icon could be displayed, that for screen sharing. So a person could have 1, 2 or even 3 icons (microphone / webcam / screen sharing).
