UX Researcher and Testing Participant join the video conference on laptop or desktop
Participant opens the event on their mobile device from Google Calendar or their Gmail Invitation
Participant while still in the call on their laptop/desktop will Join with Google Meet from their mobile device
After joining on their mobile device they should have two participants with their account in the meeting
Clicking on the three dots in the menu bar next to end call will open up a call options menu where they can share their screen
Participant should confirm the consent request for screen sharing
The screenshare of their phone should display in the meeting chat, if it does not appear have them attempt to share screen once more as sometimes a second Screen Share is needed for privacy settings. They can then freely navigate away from the call screen to the website or prototype link you are testing.
To stop sharing their screen at the end of the test they can click the same dot menu button and Stop Screenshare
