How to allow camera access on iOS

Some people have a very strict setting on iOS about accessing the camera. That's very good and we don't want to discourage that.

Coviu is a web application and as such runs in a web browser. On iOS, that is the Safari web browser. If you have set your settings for Safari to be very strong, then Coviu will be refused access to the camera. You will need to allow the Coviu website access to the camera and microphone to make video calls.

1. Navigate to your Settings.

2. Scroll down until you find Safari. Go into this menu.

3. Scroll to the bottom of the menu to find Camera. Choose this option.

4. Choose Allow.
