Considerations

  • Screen capture does not work on mobile devices.
  • Screen capture is only supported in Chrome and Edge (not in Safari or Firefox).
  • The audio captured during the screen recording is from your microphone, not your computer audio.
  • Screen recordings are played back in standard definition, so it is recommended that text be set to font size 14pt or higher for best legibility. Lower font sizes will not be legible.
  • On macOS 10.15+ (Catalina), to share your screen, you must grant the browser access to the screen in macOS System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy > Screen Recording
  • In some cases, using Screen Share in an iframe will not work. For this reason, it is recommended that the Instructor enables the option to open the GoReact assignment in a new tab.
