Permissions

Permissions enable applications to access particular aspects of your computer, including both hardware and software components. Boom functions as a virtual camera tool that requests permission to interact with various computer elements to apply overlays and visual effects during video communications.

Boom requires the following system permissions:

  • Accessibility: Required for keyboard shortcuts.
  • Camera: Needed to display themes and other visual effects on your calls.
  • Location: Required to display your city and weather on your calls.
  • Screen Recording & System Audio: Enables the presentation functionality, allowing Boom to access your screen for presentation features.
