Continuing on mobile device support, I have some new datapoints.
BBB on Mobile
Had a bunch of calls with people on mobile platforms, here’s a summary!
- BBB web client works on mobile, no app is needed
-
iPad and Android devices work even better than I expected! Clear audio, video, drawing on whiteboard, PDF upload and presenting, everything works great
first time users who aren’t especially tech-savvy had no trouble
- One Android phone, from an unknown manufacturer, has Chrome crashing whenever trying to enable video
- Microsoft Surface (I assume Edge browser) seems to be audio-only
- Phones with tiny screens may be more problematic, but that seems like a general problem
There isn’t a collective place to pool this info together yet. I am going to continue this documenting on our BBB issue at the Hypha GitHub for now instead of piling all details onto this CoTech thread.
