Can I use my phone or tablet for BetterHelp?
System requirements:
- You need (1) a computer, (2) a phone that can receive SMS text and/or phone calls, and (3) a strong, reliable internet connection in order to be successful on our platform.
- Our system is sensitive and will kick you out if an interruption in your connection is detected due to security restrictions.
- Your computer should have a working microphone and camera, and the latest version of Google Chrome.
Using the BetterHelp App:
- You will not be able to conduct video sessions with members from your phone or tablet as these must be done from a computer in a quiet and private environment.
- However, you can use the BetterHelp app on your phone or tablet to send messages to your members and manage your schedule if you’d like.
- You can only be logged in on one device at a time, so please be sure to log out of the app before starting a session on your computer.
