# Collaboration

**ShapesXR** is a collaborative design tool built for remote XR teams, enabling seamless brainstorming and ideation in **Mixed Reality**. It supports rapid prototyping, instant sharing with teammates, and real-time co-editing, all within a shared immersive space.

ShapesXR brings teams together effortlessly:

* Create and collaborate with other users on any plan, [free or paid](/getting-started/free-or-paid.md), with flexible permission levels.
* Overcome distance barriers and work seamlessly with teammates from anywhere in the world.

### How to Join a Collaboration <a href="#how-to-join-a-collaboration" id="how-to-join-a-collaboration"></a>

To join a collaborative session, users must have access to the same **space**. All users within the same **project** automatically have access to every space in that project.

You can also share a space directly using a **space code** or **share link**, available in both the **Dashboard** and the **VR app**.

<div><figure><img src="/files/63R308r8jsx7sluXlRbw" alt="" width="476"><figcaption><p>Space code in the Web editor (the same in the VR app) </p></figcaption></figure> <figure><img src="/files/cTYaf4XmMa23KXJkDG29" alt="" width="563"><figcaption><p>Space code in the Dashboard</p></figcaption></figure></div>

Simply share the **space code** or **share link** with your teammates. They can enter it in their **Dashboard** or **VR app** to join you directly in the space.

For more details about sharing spaces, see the [**Sharing Spaces**](/export-and-sharing/sharing-spaces-via-app-web.md) section.

### Avatars and Appearance <a href="#avatars-and-appearance" id="avatars-and-appearance"></a>

During a collaborative session, you can see each participant’s **avatar** (if set in Oculus) or **headset**, along with a label showing their **name** and **current frame number**.

To support user comfort and safety, avatars are automatically hidden in certain situations:

* When users are very close to each other.
* When users are working at different scales.

You can click another user’s **frame label** to instantly **teleport to their frame**.

### Undo/Redo while Collaboration <a href="#undo-redo-in-a-collaborative-session" id="undo-redo-in-a-collaborative-session"></a>

During collaboration, you can only **Undo** and **Redo** actions that you personally performed.

### Audio Settings <a href="#audio-settings-for-a-collaborative-session" id="audio-settings-for-a-collaborative-session"></a>

By default, you can hear all users within a space during a collaborative session.

If you don’t want other users to hear you, you can **mute your microphone** using the **Mic** button in the main menu.

You can also adjust the **sound propagation distance** to hear only users who are nearby. For more details, see the [**Audio Settings**](https://learn.shapesxr.com/basics/settings#sound-distance) section.

### Limits and Recommendations <a href="#limits-and-recommendations" id="limits-and-recommendations"></a>

For optimal performance, a collaborative session should include no more than **15–20 users**.

To ensure a smooth and uninterrupted collaboration experience, we recommend using a **stable internet connection**.
