Mark Zuckerberg revealed on Facebook that screen sharing during video calls will now be possible on WhatsApp. The introduction of this feature aims to enhance the user experience on the Meta-owned messaging app by allowing users to share documents, photos, or any other content needed during a video call.

More established video conferencing platforms like Zoom, Google Meet, and Microsoft Teams have long offered the screen-sharing feature, which has proven to be essential, particularly for business calls. Similar to these platforms, screen sharing on WhatsApp can be accessed by tapping or clicking the “Share” icon, giving users the option to share a specific app or their entire screen.
According to TechCrunch, screen sharing is now rolling out on Android, iOS, and Windows Desktop. The rollout may not have reached all users yet, but it will be available in the near future.
In addition to screen sharing, WhatsApp has introduced landscape mode support for video calling, which undoubtedly offers a more convenient experience for screen sharing than the existing portrait mode.
Meta acquired WhatsApp nearly a decade ago, transforming it into the leading global messaging app with 2.78 billion active users. As video communication continues to grow in popularity, messaging apps must stay competitive and keep up with trends. Therefore, we can anticipate further video-related updates from WhatsApp in the near future.
