WhatsApp is bringing new feature that allows you share your screen on a video call, here’s how to use

One reason WhatsApp is regarded as one of the best encrypted messaging apps is the sheer number of features it has received over the past few years. Message editing, Chat Lock, and some much-needed updates to polls have recently been added to the Meta-owned messaging platform. As WhatsApp works to expand video calls with screen sharing support, peoples are now hearing about what might be the next feature to join those ranks.

Screen sharing would permit you to reflect your telephone’s screen while on a video call — a convenient choice to have when you are examining a few significant slides or reports over a WhatsApp video call. It might also be useful when you try to remotely assist your friends and family in diagnosing some phone issues.

WABetaInfo discovered that the most recent WhatsApp beta for Android v2.23.11.19 release contained the first indication of screen sharing. Wire, FaceTime, Google Meet, and other famous informing applications currently offer a comparative screen sharing choice. The final system requirements are still unknown, and the feature may not be available on older Android phones or group video calls.

For security and protection reasons, WhatsApp screen sharing is probably not going to show content from applications that set FLAG_Secure, which keeps you from taking their screen capture. This flag is mostly used by streaming apps and password managers to stop content from being shared without permission.

Additionally, the order of the bottom navigation bar has been altered in the most recent WhatsApp beta, which was distributed to a large number of users. Rather than Talks, People group, Status, and Calls, a few clients are seeing the tab organized in Visits, Calls, People group, and Status request. This indicates that WhatsApp is still finalizing the layout of its new Android navigation bar, which may not be available to the general public for several weeks.
