Enable Camera / Microphone permissions
Once camera / microphone permission have been denied, often accidentally, the browser won't let VDO.Ninja ask for it again. You'll need to manually change the permission to fix it, or use a different browser. How to change the permission depends on the browser and operation system.
I've provided links to some guides. If these guides are helpful for you, I'll offer a guide in VDO.Ninja to help future users when I detect permissions have been denied.
- 1.On your Android device, open the Chrome app
- 2.To the right of the address bar, tap More -> Settings
- 3.Tap Site Settings
- 4.Tap Microphone or Camera
- 5.Tap to turn the microphone or camera on or off; If you see the site you want to use under Blocked, tap the site -> Access your microphone -> Allow
If you’ve turned off microphone access on your device, you can control your app permissions on Android to use your mic.
If you're using a Chrome device at work or school, your network administrator can set camera and microphone settings for you. In that case, you can't change them here. Learn about using a managed Chrome device.
- 1.Open Chrome
- 2.At the top right, click More -> Settings
- 3.Click Privacy and security -> Site settings -> Camera or Microphone
- 4.Select the option you want as your default setting - Review your blocked and allowed sites - To remove an existing exception or permission: To the right of the site, click Delete - To allow a site that you already blocked: Under "Not allowed," select the site's name and change the camera or microphone permission to "Allow."

On an iPhone, it's a bit more complicated:
