Accidentally Blocked Camera Access?

If you see “Camera is missing” in your interview, you likely denied camera access when your browser asked for permission. Browsers won’t ask again once you’ve denied — you need to manually enable it in settings.
Good news: Camera is optional! You can tap “Keep my camera off” and complete an audio-only interview. But if you want to enable video, follow the steps below.

Don’t Want to Use Camera?

That’s totally fine! Camera is optional. To proceed without video:
  1. On the camera setup step, tap “Keep my camera off”
  2. Confirm your choice in the dialog
  3. Continue with an audio-only interview
Your video helps verify your identity for faster payouts, but the interview works just as well without it.

​
Still Not Working?

Try these additional steps:
  1. Restart your browser — Close it completely and reopen
  2. Close other apps using the camera — Zoom, FaceTime, Teams, etc.
  3. Check for a physical camera cover — Some laptops have privacy shutters
  4. Restart your device — Sometimes permissions need a restart
This usually means another app is using the camera:
  • Close Zoom, FaceTime, Teams, Google Meet, or any video apps
  • Close and reopen your browser
  • Try refreshing the interview page
Corporate devices often have camera access locked down. Try:
  • Use your personal phone — Open the interview link on your own device
  • Continue without camera — Tap “Keep my camera off” for audio-only

Skip the Camera

Remember: Camera is optional! If you’re having trouble, just tap “Keep my camera off” to continue with audio only.
