Iphone and IPads and HOA's Please help me sort this out. I found by searching that IF people using an IPhone or IPAD download the latest Google Hangout app they CAN come INTO the film strip. When testing I am not able to do that?
Should be able to - we have been for a few years. Are the receiving the invite? Try sending them the invite by email.
I find that if you use Apple's email client or Safari, sometimes it has trouble understanding to launch the hangouts app. Try pasting in the link to Chrome and it should get you to the Hangouts app.
Thanks Trevor Beck we are actually holding the hangouts on our website and there is a JOIN THE HANGOUT button on that page. That image is clickable and has the "invitation" link assigned to it. But again, when we tested and we did send the link via email entry into the film strip is not happening for some reason Now this is A HANGOUT ON AIR, not a regular hangout and I think that is the issue
I believe you can come in a hangout on air with iphone or ipad, just fine. I know you don't have any of the featured apps. My son does it with his iphone. You still need a google account.
So weird. I started a HOA yesterday, emailed Jim the link to get in, he tried it on his IPhone and could not get in. Michael Daniels Maybe Jim needs to open the link on the Gmail APP on his IPhone ?
Not sure Trevor Beck we are testing this to see why some folks can not come INTO the hangout we hold on our website. Now, they are NOT tech savy so that explains a lot of it
