Xiomi overlay problem

stanislav-byrtus-63d236

Hello, I am currently troubleshooting an issue we have experienced with a Xiomi phone. Specifically, it is that the Xiomi phone disables the session despite having permissions enabled due to the “application overlay problem” message. This only occurs on Xiomi phones even using the Google browser. Is there any way to fix this problem?

Hello, this seems to be issue with some application that needs to show floating menu over the browser when WebRTC call is running.
There are several security measures implemented in browsers that may prevent video streaming when overlay application is detected. This is usually because of screen grabbing prevention.
There should be system settings that should enable compatibility between browser and overlay apps, but the settings may vary from phone to phone.

Here are some guides that seems to be relevant:
