WhatsApp expands its functions and now allows screen sharing in video calls

Since the launch of Meta messenger, Whatsapp, the application stood out for being extremely user-friendly, dispensing with names, passwords and even advertisements. Instead, it allows you to directly use phone numbers to facilitate communication.

However, we can say that the real revolution brought by WhatsApp was the ability to send text, voice, video and image messages over the internet.

In this way, the application eliminated the need for traditional SMS messages that were charged by operators. Furthermore, the introduction of voice and video calling has further expanded its reach and usefulness.

The introduction of WhatsApp into people’s lives was quick and profound. In countries where SMS rates were particularly high, the app became a vital tool almost overnight.

Currently, it has reached companies, which continue to use WhatsApp as a communication tool with customers. As the days went by, new updates were made to the application and more news is on the way. Check out!

Some time ago, when people wanted to show something on their cell phone screen to a friend during a call, they had to turn the camera this way and that. However, things seem to be getting easier now. This is because screen sharing will be allowed via video call on WhatsApp.

However, one thing is still not very clear: will this screen sharing function be just for cell phones or can it also be used on WhatsApp Web, the computer version of the application? This is still a mystery. But you can be sure of one thing: WhatsApp is becoming more and more similar to other programs, such as Zoom and Google Meet.

Cell phones with Android and iOS will be able to take advantage of this new feature. So, no matter what brand your cell phone is, everyone will be able to share their screens.

And the news doesn’t stop there, as there is still one detail: when the screen is shared, it will be in landscape mode. This is that cell phone lying down mode, you know? This makes it easier for everyone to see what is being displayed.

How to share screen on WhatsApp?

  1. Access your WhatsApp;
  2. Make a video call;
  3. After that, choose the “Share” option;
  4. Choose to show details for a application or, if desired, display the entire screen;
  5. Soon people will see a notification saying: “[nome] started sharing the screen.”

And then you found this new WhatsApp function useful?
