How do I enable camera permissions?


Enabling Camera Permissions


To take advantage of many features within SpacesEDU, you will need to allow access to the camera on your device.


The first time you access your camera from SpacesEDU, a prompt will appear to allow the permission - select Allow , and you are ready to get started. The pop-up may look different depending on the device you are using, but it is typically something like this:
