Sessions
A session is the live connection created whenever you connect to one of your Gamearena devices. The Sessions panel gives you full visibility and control over every connection — view active sessions, review history, end connections, and share access with others.
01 · Manage Sessions
Gamearena gives you full visibility into every connection made to your devices. Whenever you connect to one of your PCs, an active session is created and surfaced directly in the platform.
| Capability | Description |
|---|---|
| View Active Sessions | See all live connections to your device in real time, including who is connected and when the session started. |
| End a Session | Terminate any active session instantly from the Sessions panel with a single click. |
| Session Audit Log | Browse the complete history of past sessions for any device — timestamps, duration, and user details included. |
| Share a Session | Invite another user to join your active session collaboratively. See below for details. |
Note: Sessions are scoped per device. Open the relevant device page to view its session history and active connections.
02 · Share a Session
Invite a friend or teammate to connect to the same device at the same time — perfect for co-op gaming, pair programming, or remote support. Shared sessions use a time-limited invite link so you stay in control of who gets access and for how long.
Quick steps:
- Connect to the device you want to share
- Open Settings on the overlay
- Click your avatar in the bottom-left corner of the overlay
- Choose who you're inviting — an existing Gamearena user or anyone
- Set the link expiry time
- Click Share Link → send the invite
