Tips
- Sometimes the Netflix bot works, but it doesn't work as easily as screen sharing. Instead, the bot opens another thread and posts a link to the Netflix show or movie. Every person has to click the link and sign in to watch it, so they can't participate without a Netflix account. You can use the thread to discuss the show or movie.Thanks
- The mobile app won't stream audio and will most likely show a black screen, so it's easier to stream and screen share from a computer.Thanks
