WhatsApp Unveils Screen Sharing in Video Calls


WhatsApp Update

WhatsApp is on a relentless mission to enhance its platform with a myriad of features, and it seems there’s no end in sight. The latest addition to Whatsapp is screen sharing during video calls, as announced by Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg.

This new feature allows users to effortlessly share their screen content, be it documents, photos, or anything else they want to showcase. The development process for this feature has been underway for several months. And was made available to beta testers in May. By tapping on the Share icon, users can choose to share a specific app or their entire screen. Interestingly, the way WhatsApp’s screen sharing works bears a striking resemblance to the functionality offered by Zoom and Google Meet.

One can’t help but wonder if this move by WhatsApp is an attempt to carve out a larger slice of the business territory occupied by its competitors. However, screen sharing isn’t limited to professional endeavors, It can also prove immensely helpful when providing technical support to family members or engaging in other non-business activities.

As is customary with WhatsApp updates, the introduction of screen sharing will occur in phases. Meaning it may take some time before all users have access to it. Rest assured, though, that it will eventually be available to Android and iOS users. As well as those utilizing the Windows desktop client.
