Re-enabling Screen Sharing if Permissions Were Previously Denied

If you are getting an error message that tells you "Screen sharing is blocked by your browser," it may be because you previously selected Never for This Website when asked to allow doxy.me to observe your screen. If so, you can easily change this setting.

How to Re-enable Screen Sharing

  1. Open Safari Preferences using the keyboard shortcut ( ⌘ + , ) or via the menu toolbar

  5. The next time you try to share your screen on doxy.me, Safari will prompt you for permission like it's your first time. When it does this, be sure to select Allow.
