Good to know

Jiva reads only the meeting window and the window in front of you, on this Mac. It never records video, and it never reads Slack or Jiva itself. It reads your own screen only while you share one window; a full-desktop share is skipped.

If something goes wrong

No cards appear

Check Settings, Permissions: Screen Recording must be granted. Jiva shows a notification when it cannot read the meeting window.
