When launched for the first time, Mago for Display will request permissions.
Required permissions include:
Microphone & Camera for video conferencing
Networking & Local Discovery for pairing, casting and screen sharing
Display over other apps (if prompted)
Grant these permissions when prompted. You can change permissions later via:
Settings → Apps → Mago → Permissions

Disable “Pause app activity if unused”
This Android feature automatically restricts apps that haven’t been used for a while. If enabled, the system may stop Mago for Display in the background, revoke permissions or suspend essential services. This can interrupt signage, pairing, casting or meeting startup. For continuous operation in meeting rooms, keep this option disabled.
