Allow access without video or audio

Joakim Isoaho
I am trying to use Pop as our main meeting tool.
We use gather.town for our virtual office, and would love to use pop to enable multiplayer cursor stuff.
Right now I can embed a pop room, but I can't join it as the mic and video popups never showup.

Hello!
We're also trying to test pop for use in our team. First blocker we've hit is, when joining, if you don't allow camera/mic access, it prevents you from joining the session. I'm stuck at "To make video calls, allow Pop access to your microphone and camera"... "Allowing Access..".
Our main use of these tools are; each person joins from two devices, one is a smartphone or tablet for audio/video(camera), and a workstation(laptop/desktop) for screensharing or screengazing.
We don't allow mic/camera permissions on workstations. All other tools (Jitsi,Meets,Zoom,..) work fine. Google meets even shows up a "companion mode" option, but probably not necessary. Manually muting tab + disabling mic + disabling camera is sufficient.

Hello, I'm the designer at Pop and I see that you are using Gather with your team. We're exploring something similar for the future of Pop, and I would love to share some early ideas with you to see how you would react.

Hi Joakim — we haven't seen this happen. Could we try to reproduce this live via a debug session (https://calendly.com/j-pop/debug-session), or otherwise, could you give more details on your set up so we can try to reproduce the issue ourselves? Thanks!
