Step 1 (getting ready – special camera and microphone test, takes 3 mins)
Make sure your camera and microphone are working. Log out of any other applications.
Do the test here (allow time to do this, if it doesn’t work, let me know).

Click the link on our webpage to join or use the link you have been sent by email.

You cannot use an iPad and Chrome, and you cannot use an iPAD which is older than 5 years.
You must use current browsers (not Internet Explorer, or the old version of Edge)
If you are on a Mac and have Chrome then use that browser if possible. Safari will work but NOT if you have Big Sur with an earlier veersion than 11.2.0
Information you need to read:
- List of computers and browsers which can be used – everyone

MAKING SURE YOU HAVE DONE BROWSER UPDATES
In Chrome, and Edge, you need to click the three little dots in the top right corner. Alternatively:
For Chrome chrome://settings/help
For Edge edge://settings/help
INFORMATION FOR MAC USERS: MacOS (MacBook)
- You can use Chrome as an alternative to Safari. [Its web video support may be better.]
- In Safari there is a menu item "Safari > Settings for the website...". In that window for RealBridge, select "Allow all auto-play" media, and set the camera & microphone permission to "Allow".
