After you’ve created a room, invite your guests to join your recording. Recordings are not scheduled in Zencastr for specific dates and times, so you can invite guests to join you in the room’s Recording Page anytime.

The steps below are for the computer browser. See this article to invite guests from the mobile app for iPhone and iPad.

  • Can be accessed at any time by anyone who you share it with.
