  2. On the Mobile Application Setup record assigned for the current user’s profile, the Activity object or the Start Date field is not specified. Go to the CT Mobile Control Panel: Calendar / CT Mobile Control Panel 2.0: Activities tab and set up Activity settings for the current user’s profile.

What to do in case of sound and video issues during the Remote Detailing meeting?

Due to Apple’s limitations, the device’s microphone and camera do not work in web view and may also not work correctly in mobile browsers due to their limitations.
