Re: Be My Eyes

Jim! When the program says "connecting with the first available contact, it does need an action on your part. About halfway up on the righthand edge, you will find a button that you have to tap to complete the connection and you should hear something like "request being actioned". It all will

Here’s another question about this app. Every time I try to get a connection, it’s almost as if doesn’t even go through. It basically cuts me off immediately. What am I doing wrong? I’ve tried looking at the settings, but nothing really comes up that could help me. Jim From:
