3. On the Sharing Details page you can click your device to go into specific features you want to share such as Remote Playback, Alarm, Two-Way Audio, and more.  If you want to give the contact access to all the features available select the box labeled All Permissions.

Features Available for sharing

The features available are device specific so if certain features are not listed that means they aren't available on the device you are sharing.

Once done click Finish at the bottom.
