Manage Your Signature and Initials During a Meeting

Audience: Recipients

The short answer: During a meeting, you can resize, delete, edit, or reset your signature and initials. Most changes require the document to be unlocked — if it's locked, ask the notary to unlock it first.

⚠️
If signatures were placed in a previously completed meeting, it may not be possible to remove them.

Reset Your Signature and Initials

Resetting is only available on a computer. To change your signature on mobile, use the Edit option above.

1. Open the Meeting Menu

Select the 3 vertical dots next to your name below your video feed in the upper left corner.

2. Reset Your Signature
