The Vivi Web App is Vivi’s browser based application which can be accessed via http://app.vivi.io. This will overcome the limitation for some users/organisations who are unable to install the Vivi app on their devices. The Vivi Web App will work on most browsers on Windows, Mac, Linux and Chromebook however there are some limitations to the features within the browser (see below matrix)
The Vivi Web App will utilise the webRTC streaming method which is available from Release 3.3.0. Owing to the limitations of a browser based application, users will not be able to use live broadcast, use local video direct and Vivi toolbar while using The Vivi Web App.
This is a new way of accessing the Vivi App without requiring any installation. Simply enter the http://app.vivi.io in any of the common browsers on Windows, Mac, Linux and Chromebook and access most app functions from within the browser page.
The Vivi Web App is not compatible with any iOS or Android mobile devices.
