❓ Questions
Is there a recommended way to detect when the transcriber joins the meeting, especially if it join as a hidden participant?
Is there a plan to support Closed Captions UI in the Mobile SDK, similar to the web client?
Can we listen for a presence update or custom event to detect the transcriber’s presence?
✅ Expected Behavior
Mobile SDK should expose an event or presence update when the transcriber joins or it's already present.
Closed Captions UI should be available or at least possible to implement with SDK support.
