Issues Reported

Nbr				Issue		Planned Mitigation/Resolution		Submitter		Date Submitted
1				If you can't run the app, then you can't share your screen. So anyone that uses FCC.com via the internet browser can’t show their screen.		.		Dave Hamill		2016-11-01
2				Jeff Brown couldn't download the app; got a ‘server not found error		.		Jeff Brown		2016-11-01
3				Canadian PC cannot request a new account		.		Andy Stechishin		2016-11-15
4				Doesn’t offer Canadian number		Use VOIP		Dave Hamill		2017-02-10
5				Telephone number still costs money to use it. it’s an 0330 number, so it’s standard tariff.		.		Julie James		2017-02-15
6				How to VOIP isn’t clear		Add instructions to the Tip Sheet		Julie James		2017-02-15
7				Telephone numbers not included in T-Mobile Plans and cost about a penny a minute, perhaps other phone plans are affected		Use VOIP		Ted Klein		2017-02-15
8				Paul Knapp reports poor audio quality in Saudi Arabia, making it unusable.		FCC Trouble Ticket opened by Wayne. Awaiting further details		Wayne Kubick		2017-04-26
9				Many larger organizations are not allowed to download executable files -- Mayo and Quest Diagnostics are two of them. Hence, they cannot host a meeting nor be presenters (as both functions require a .exe file to be downloaded and run). The can, however, view screen sharing via the web (but still not present).		.		Rick Haddorff and Freida Hall		2017-06-08
10				When having to act as a host for many different Work Groups that have FreeConferenceCall.com accounts, even though I click on the current meeting’s FCC link to host, FCC often times brings up my prior FCC that I hosted. This means it often takes 5-7 minutes to get screen sharing going as I have to log out and re-download the .exe, often multiple times (3+ times).		.		Dave Hamill		2017-06-08
11				The reports that are generated contain email addresses. A concern was brought forward that some people may not want their emails publicized.		.		Frieda Hall		2017-06-08
12				Perhaps we allow WGs to use whatever screen sharing device is best for them as long as they provide the login credentials to appear in the new Utilities tab on each Work Group's page. This means that any co-chair will have access to view the login credentials and utilize the screen sharing when they're chairing a meeting.		.		Dave Hamill		2017-06-29
13				In the call I held earlier today, one participant was unable to connect via phone at all (he was told the access code was invalid), another unable to use VOIP (but successful using phone); third successful using Skype. Is there a way to check why the access code was reported as invalid?		.		Wayne Kubick		2017-07-11
