If you have missed the opportunity to allow Eyeson to access your camera and microphone, look at the following three options for resolving this issue. Simply allow Eyeson to access them, and you will no longer have any troubles with your follow-up video meetings.

Note: The following screenshots were taken using the Google Chrome Android browser. Other phone browsers and/or phones might look and work slightly differently.

Option 1

When you are on the Eyeson meeting preview page or after you have opened the invitation link in your phone browser, tap on the lock icon at the top left corner of your browser, which is positioned next to your URL.

Option 2
