Limiting public webinar attendee joins to three concurrent devices

Currently in public webinars, an attendee can use their registration link to join and be present in a webinar with any number of devices. For public webinars, there is also a possibility for that attendee to forward their registration link to others who have not registered and have them join with the registered attendee’s join link. With this new update, only 3 concurrent join instances can be present in a webinar using the same registration join link. This means that attendees can now use only up to three devices to participate in a webinar.

This message is associated with Microsoft 365 Roadmap ID 147098.
