If an interpreter leaves the meeting after interpretation starts, the host will receive a notification saying Interpreter [name] has left.
When an assigned interpreter joins the meeting midway, they will automatically be set as an interpreter, and the host will receive a notification saying that Interpreter [name] has joined.
Note: If a member is removed from being an interpreter during the meeting, they will not be an interpreter when they join the meeting.
Interpret during the meeting
When a host assigns an interpreter, the interpreter will receive a notification saying that You've been assigned as an interpreter.

After clicking Confirm, the language selection bar will appear above the action bar. The interpreter can then switch language options to speak to different channels.
