## Quickstart

To get started, the first thing you will need to do is to [generate a Mobile API key](https://docs.screenmeet.com/v1/docs/getting-a-mobile-api-key) for your organization. If your organization isn't currently registered with ScreenMeet, you can reach out to support@screenmeet.com for an API key.

Once you have your Mobile API key, you are ready to continue:

## SDK Features

### App Streaming

App-streaming is the mobile analogue to cobrowsing. When enabled, this allows a remote participant to see what is happening in the app in near real-time. This is similar to screen-sharing with the main difference being the stream is limited only to the app-owned part of the UI (for privacy reasons). Note: the system dialogs, notification bar and on-screen keyboard are not shown.

### Private Views

The privacy features of the mobile SDK allow the developer to indicate which UI elements should not be shown to the remote participants.

### Audio/Video Chat

When enabled, this allows the mobile app to stream both the microphone and camera media to the remote participants. This functionality enables developers to build audio/video chat functionality into the native mobile apps.

### Laser Pointer

Allows remote participants to "point" to various areas on the streamer's screen to direct their attention to these areas on the screen.

### Annotations

Allows remote participants to take a snapshot the streamer's screen and draw/annotate to provide additional feedback/assistance.

### Remote Control

Enables the remote participant to remote control the app, including clicking on buttons, scrolling and inputting text into text controls in the mobile app.
