My camera works elsewhere but not in the browser. Why?

Another app is probably holding it (Zoom, Teams, OBS). Close them, then allow camera access via the lock icon in the address bar and reload.

What internet speed does a video call need?

About 1–3 Mbps up and down for HD group calls. If your network is slow, turning off your own video usually rescues the audio.

Why do people hear echo from me?

Your mic is picking up your speakers. Use headphones, lower speaker volume, or enable echo cancellation in the meeting app's audio settings.

Call Quality Test

Run this before an important meeting — it checks everything a browser video call needs.

Video Call Readiness

Checks WebRTC, storage, and notifications

What the call quality test covers

Browser calls need four things: WebRTC support, camera permission, microphone permission, and (for meeting reminders) notifications. The check above verifies each one locally — fix any red item before joining and you'll skip the "can you hear me?" opening minutes.
