The Meta-owned messaging application, WhatsApp, has been continuously releasing some interesting features for quite some time now. In the same context, a couple of months ago, WhatsApp announced the new Screen Sharing feature allowing users to share their screen while on a video call. This screen-sharing feature is leaving beta and finally live to the users.
WhatsApp’s Screen Sharing Feature:
Unlike other video conferencing applications like Zoom, or Google Meet, WhatsApp also brought a screen-sharing feature that allows users to share their screen while on a video call. Although this feature is present through the Share icon, after that, you will be provided with the option whether you want to share the full screen or any specific app. Alongside, there is a landscape mode as well.
The screen-sharing feature is useful in different ways, such as sharing some documents in a video conference, precious moments with friends and family, planning a trip with friends and more. It’s worth noting that WhatsApp’s screen-sharing feature also works for group calls, making WhatsApp more versatile and convenient.
Moreover, WhatsApp has been testing the screen-sharing feature for a couple of months, and now, finally, this interesting feature is live for everyone now. The beta version of WhatsApp was rolled out for Android, iOS and Windows users, respectively.
