Sharing SMART kapp app sessions
When you share a session with others, they can tap or click a link to view your session in their web browsers; they don’t need to install additional software or otherwise configure their devices. Alternatively, others can choose to install the SMART kapp app on their mobile devices and use it to connect to your session.
As you make changes to your notes, others see these changes in real time. They can also zoom in or out and save, view and export snapshots.
Notes
You can share notes only as long as the SMART kapp app is running on your mobile device and the device is connected to a display.
The SMART kapp web viewer supports the following browsers:

You can share notes only as long as the SMART kapp app is running on your mobile device and the device is connected to a display.
You can export saved snapshots of notes without connecting your mobile device to a display (see Exporting snapshots).
To share your session
Connect your mobile device to a display (see Connecting and disconnecting the SMART kapp app).
Tap Invite, and then select Send Link.
Select the app you want to use to send the invitation.
Use the selected app to send the invitation.
When you invite others to join your session, the app sends them a dynamic link by default. When you use a dynamic link, the app creates a new link each time you send an invitation for others to join your session.
You can also use a static link. A static link is the same each time you send an invitation. With a static link, you can send the link before meetings start to help simplify meeting startup.
To use a static link instead of a dynamic link, change the invitation link preferences in the app’s settings.

Optionally, select Send Link, and then select a method to send the static link to others.
In the SMART kapp app, you can add password security to protect your sessions before you send a link to share them. Others will have to use the password you set to join your shared session.

Write and erase notes
View notes
Save snapshots of notes
Share snapshots
You can also connect your own display to the session, and then view and interact with notes using the display. Changes you make on your display appear automatically on the other person’s display. Changes made on their display appear on yours.
