Option to start session with mute and camera off

I would like to have the option to start the session muted and camera off just in case a last minute "something" comes up or just to have a second chance to be "on" when I am ready to be on.

Thank you for the idea! While there isn't currently a button to start a call with no audio and video like you can with audio only, you are able to toggle the camera and mic off in your dashboard. When you start a call, those permissions carry over to the call, allowing you to enable the cam and mic when you are ready.
If you have the camera preview enabled in your settings, you can click the mic icon to mute the mic and click the ellipsis that appear to turn off the camera.
