Skype this week launched
<https://blogs.skype.com/news/2019/06/04/screen-sharing-goes-mobile-and-more
/> a new screen sharing feature on iOS and Android devices, allowing users
to share their smartphone screens with any of their Skype friends. Microsoft
said that this should be useful for helping family members figure out their
new smartphone, shopping online with a friend, and more.
Skype on desktop already supports screen sharing, but this is a brand new
addition for the iOS and Android apps and was previously in beta testing
<https://www.macrumors.com/2019/04/12/skype-testing-share-screen/> earlier
this year. To find the feature on your iPhone, start a Skype call, tap the
"..." menu at the bottom right of the screen, and choose to start sharing
your screen.
The company has also redesigned the app to streamline video calls: users can
simply tap to dismiss all call controls so they can see their friend or
family member without any obstructions. To remove all UI from the call, they
can double tap the screen, and then single tap again to bring everything
back.
Skype for iPhone is available to download for free [Direct Link
<https://itunes.apple.com/app/apple-store/id304878510?mt=8> ], and the new
screen sharing feature is available on devices running iOS 12 and up.
