Can't join a watch party?

Flickcall connects you straight to your friends over peer-to-peer WebRTC, with no server in the middle. That keeps your calls private, but some networks block it. These fixes get almost everyone through.

1

Allow microphone access, then rejoin

Grant mic permission, refresh the page and restart the party. This alone fixes it for most people — even on a VPN. Read why it works.

2

Switch or disable your VPN

Try a different VPN server first. If that fails, disable the VPN. A VPN extension must be disabled from chrome://extensions — just toggling it off inside the extension isn't enough.

3

Try a different internet connection

Some networks aren't WebRTC friendly. Switching to another Wi-Fi network usually does the trick.

4

Give a mobile hotspot up to 30 seconds

Hotspots can be slow to connect. Avoid low-bandwidth mobile connections when you can.

5

Check your firewall

A corporate firewall, or one you installed yourself, can block the ports WebRTC needs. Try turning your own firewall off briefly to rule it out.
