# Camera access

Multiple locations on the platform allow you to use the camera from your smartphone to easily scan stuff like wristbands.

#### Permission <a href="#permission" id="permission"></a>

Every time you want the platform to show your camera stream, the phone requests your access. If you grant this permission the camera will start streaming. But if you **refuse** the permission, you might not be asked a second time. For some phones you will need to edit your settings.

On Safari on iPhone you can edit your website settings by going to [eventication.com](https://eventication.com) (or any other page of the website) and clicking the <img src="/files/CRZPql2yk6punGmCHJNW" alt="" data-size="line"> button and clicking "*Website Settings*". The menu that pops up allows you to edit the "*Camera*" settings. Pick "*Ask*" or "*Allow*".

### Chrome

Chrome has 2 permissions that have to be allowed. The iPhone permission and the Chrome permission.

To check the iPhone permission, open your iPhone settings, scroll down to Chrome and tap it. This opens up a menu where "*Camera*" should be turned on.

To check the Chrome permission, open up the Chrome app and navigate to [eventication.com](https://eventication.com) (or any other page of the website). Find a "*Start camera*" button (time tracks for example) and click it. The permission is presented again. Tap "*Allow*" and the camera should start.

## Android

### Chrome

Scroll down to "*Site settings*" and tap it. Here you can edit the "*Camera*" permission per website. Click on "*eventication.com*" and tap on "*Allow*". Close the settings and refresh the page.
