Browser compatibility, camera, and screen sharing issues
Browser Compatibility
Google Chrome (desktop) is recommended for full voice, video, code editor, and whiteboard support.
Firefox — generally works, but some audio device selection features may behave differently
Safari — limited support for some voice and video features
Mobile browsers — Aural can run on mobile, but screen size and background tab behavior may affect the experience. Use desktop for important interviews.
Keep your browser up to date. Older versions may lack WebRTC and audio API fixes that Aural depends on.
Camera and Screen Sharing
Camera Not Working
Check that the browser has camera permission (address bar icon or site settings)
Make sure no other app is using the camera exclusively
Try selecting a different camera device if you have multiple
Screen Sharing
When prompted, choose the window, tab, or entire screen you want to share. If the picker doesn't appear, click anywhere on the page first and retry.
Common Errors
Permission denied — reset camera/screen permissions in browser settings
Black screen — ensure the camera is uncovered and the correct device is selected
Screen share not starting — close and retry; a page refresh may be needed
