Answer a call

An incoming call shows a banner at the top with the caller's name and Incoming voice call… or Incoming video call…. Click Accept to join or Decline. To join a call that's already going, answer its ring.

During a call

Calls can't share your screen or be recorded yet. To show your screen, record a clip.

The first time you call, your browser asks to use your microphone and camera: allow it, or the others won't hear or see you. If the call can't connect, Workel says Could not start the call; check your connection and try again.

• Mute and Unmute your microphone.
• Camera off and Camera on.
• Leave call hangs up. The others stay connected.
• While you're in a call, the call buttons in other chats say Already in a call.

2. 2Choose Screen only, Screen + microphone, Screen + camera or Camera only.
3. 3Use Pause, Resume and Stop recording while you record. When you stop, the clip uploads and says Clip saved.
