Two phones

CapSession

Send a link. The other person opens the app and joins your session.

Best for face-to-face talks where each person keeps their own phone.

Two people sit face to face and read captions on separate phones.

Real moments

  • You send an invite by text.
  • The link opens the app when it is installed.
  • The web page shows the code when the app is not installed.
  • The code is numeric, so every keyboard can enter it.

Use it this way

  1. 1Open CapSession in the app.
  2. 2Share the invite link.
  3. 3The second phone opens the invite.
  4. 4Both people speak from their own phone.

When it fails

  • If the app does not open, install the app and enter the code.
  • If the code is missing, ask the host to send a new invite.
  • If the connection drops, open the same invite again.

What to trust

  • Both phones need the app for a two-phone conversation.
  • The invite code is only a session code.
  • Old alphanumeric invites can still work while they age out.
