Most things are one step. If yours isn't here, email us and we'll find it.

Before your first lesson

Open the link on the device you'll useA laptop is easiest — the board is bigger. A phone works.
Say yes to the microphoneWithout it the teacher can't hear you and the lesson can't start.
Camera only if you want itIt's not a video call. It takes one still photo when it asks to see your page.
Headphones helpNot required, but interrupting feels instant with them on.
Have the work next to youYou can drag a file onto the board any time, up to 25 MB.

If something goes wrong

It can't hear me

Allow the microphone in the address bar and reload. If another app is using it — a call, another tab — close that first.

I can't hear it

Check the tab isn't muted and the right speakers are picked, then reload. On a phone, press the join button rather than waiting.

It keeps cutting itself off

Your room is loud. Turn on push-to-talk in the bar at the bottom and hold the space key while you speak.

It went quiet mid-sentence

Wait a few seconds. It reconnects on its own and carries on where it was — it won't start the lesson again.

My tab crashed

Open the same link. The board and the clock come back exactly as they were.

The homework didn't arrive

It's on your notes page — the same link you were sent. Download it there and tell us, so we can fix the delivery.

The link says it isn't time

It opens ten minutes before your lesson and closes fifteen minutes after it starts.

Still stuck?

Send the lesson link and roughly when it happened. A person reads every one.
