WhatsApp Screen Sharing During Calls

Anticipation for this development had been building since its preliminary release to beta users in May. Presently, it has officially made its debut in the stable version of WhatsApp, accessible worldwide.
The modus operandi is elegantly straightforward. It facilitates the sharing of diverse content visible on your display—be it documents, presentations, photographs, and possibly even extend to video games, though that remains uncertain.
Activation of this function transpires with the press of the share button during a video call. Subsequently, the option to exhibit a specific window or your entire screen is presented, mirroring the mechanics of other messaging platforms such as Google Meet, Discord, Zoom, and the like.
As is customary, the introduction of pioneering features often adheres to a measured and incremental rollout, indicating that immediate ubiquity might not be immediate. Prospective accessibility is slated for Android, iOS, and the Windows desktop application, spanning across all users in due course.
Supplementary to the screen-sharing prowess, WhatsApp has also incorporated support for landscape orientation during video calls.
Apart from this, WhatsApp is actively engrossed in the development of numerous other features, some of which have been glimpsed in the app’s beta iterations. Expect forthcoming additions like animated 3D stickers, augmented security via email verification, and a medley of minor enhancements to the user interface.
