📣 Heads up: If you're using a Mac running macOS Catalina or later, you may need to give your browser permission to share your screen. Go to System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Screen Recording and make sure your browser is checked on. You may need to restart your browser after making this change.

Important Notes

  • Screen sharing is only available on macOS and Windows devices using a laptop or desktop computer. Mobile devices can view a shared screen but cannot initiate screen sharing.
  • Screen sharing requires a screen width of at least 475 pixels. This covers most computers, laptops, and the majority of smartphones and tablets.
  • Clients can share their screen by following the same steps above.
  • Screen sharing cannot be recorded. Jane's Telehealth feature is HIPAA and PIPEDA compliant and does not support recording of any kind.
  • Remote access and annotation are not currently available. Clients cannot take control of your screen or annotate during a session.
