"You can start a HOA on a mobile device, like a phone or tablet. Without having to start in on a desktop computer or laptop."
This should be of GREAT interest to members of the community...particularly those using mobile devices!*

hangouts on air on a mobile device -
Someone asked me about this. I wanted to get something up quickly. So this is not a great video. I will try to make something better when I have the time.
You can start a HOA on a mobile device, like a phone or tablet. Without having to start in on a desktop computer or laptop. I have started a HOA on just my android phone and nothing else. YOu can not use the hangout app for this. Go to youtube in your chrome browser. It will take you to the mobile site. You will have to go to settings and request the desktop site. Then just start the HOA as you normally would. When you click on the start hangout button. It will ask you to open the link with the hangout app or chrome browser. Always pick chrome browser.

Disclaimer! I don't know if this actually works as I don't have any mobile devices but...if it does it is a game changer for sure!
ReplyDeleteOn my Android it works until I click to shart the hangout on air and then all it will do is take me to the hangouts app in the chrome store :( Need to play a little more me thinks....
ReplyDeletemy android is not smart enough as it will not start a hangout on air - only a video call :(
ReplyDeleteThere are a number of challenges to this, yes it is possible for SOME mobile devices to start the HOA, however it is a very labor intensive and complicated process just to get to the screen that allows you click start a hangout and that is when you find out your phone may not be compatible.
Angelocracy Xue I think you should state in your description which phone you are using so people know.
Heather Kraafter Thanks for the insights. Lacking a mobile phone I'm kinda 'flying blind' on this one. :)
ReplyDeleteNot letting me do it on the iPad. Bummer!
