Getting started

You may join a broadcast using iOS (iPhone/iPad) or Android devices.

Joining the broadcast

1. Once the host shares their guest link, open it using Safari (for iPhone/iPad) or Chrome (Android devices).

Make sure to paste the guest link directly to the correct browser's address bar:

2. Join the broadcast using only your name, OR by signing in to your Facebook or Google account.

3. Tap Enable Camera > Allow access to camera and microphone > Tap Let's go!

After connecting your camera and microphone, you'll find yourself in the guest studio:

  1. Broadcasting section - what the viewers will see on the broadcast (once you see yourself in this section, that means the host has already added you to the broadcast)

  2. Your camera preview - tap here to switch between front-facing and rear-facing/back camera

  3. Mute - disables your microphone (the host and viewers will not hear you)

  4. Host chat - allows you to chat with the host and other guests privately

Troubleshooting

If you cannot see or hear yourself

  • Make sure to use the correct browser for your device.

  • Refresh the page.

  • Grant permissions for your browser to access your camera/microphone.

  • Ask the host to refresh the studio page on their side and re-join the broadcast afterwards.

If you hear echo/feedback

  • The host and guest(s) must wear headsets to prevent external sound from being picked up by the microphone.
