Troubleshooting tips


I cannot share my screen in Chrome incognito browser session or Firefox private browsing.

Private browser sessions are not supported by the application.

Popups and dropdown fields are not streamed correctly

Select "Entire screen" option to show everything. When you select "Application Window" option, it streams actions specific to the applications current state and popups and dropdown fields in the application may go ignored.
