NOTE: It is possible to get some acoustic feedback while using loudspeakers and/or a built-in microphone.

That’s why we recommend making sure that you have a headset ready before entering the room.

NOTE: The above requirements only apply to using the Virtual Classroom on our platform. However, our learning management system and other web-based services do not require the above. Instead, you can use them with all of the most popular web browsers running on current versions of Windows, Linux, MacOS, Android or iOS. Any hardware capable of supporting one of the above current OS versions is also capable of running our services.

Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, MS Edge, and Safari (recommended for Mac) browsers support the screen-sharing functionality in the virtual classroom. It will not require additional installations after certain versions. No matter the browser you use, you will still be able to see a participant’s shared screen.

Note: Screen sharing is not supported on mobile devices like tablets or smartphones.

Mobile devices

The VEDAMO Virtual classroom can also be accessed on Android mobile devices with Android 5.0 (or higher) and Apple mobile devices with iOS 12.5.5 (or higher). Screen resolution should be at least 854х480, and only the latest Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, and Safari browsers are supported.
