Permission-based access

Our representative can only view or control your screen after you approve the remote support session.

Support sessions use a session key provided during your call, helping connect you with the right representative.

You can end the session

You always maintain control of your computer and can end the screen-sharing session whenever needed.

Windows and Mac permissions

Depending on your operating system, you may need to download a small client, approve screen recording permissions, allow accessibility permissions, or confirm browser prompts before the session can begin.

Your SMART Solutions representative will guide you through the correct steps while you are on the phone.
