Sharing your screen on Zoom is an essential feature for presentations, virtual meetings, and collaborative work. Here’s a detailed guide on how to share screen on Zoom:
Join or Start a Meeting
Open the Zoom app on your computer or mobile device and join an existing meeting or start a new one. You’ll need to be the host or have permission to share your screen if you’re a participant.
Click the ‘Share Screen’ Button
Once in the meeting, look for the green “Share Screen” button at the bottom of the Zoom window. This is available on both desktop and mobile versions of Zoom.
Choose What to Share
After clicking the “Share Screen” button, Zoom will show you a list of options. You can:
- Share your entire screen: This will display everything on your computer screen.
- Share a specific application: Select a particular window or application you want to share, like a PowerPoint presentation or a browser window.
- Share a whiteboard: You can use Zoom’s whiteboard feature to draw or write during the meeting.
Enable Audio Sharing (Optional)
If you plan to share a video with sound, you’ll want to check the “Share sound” option. This ensures participants can hear the audio from your computer while watching the screen.
Click ‘Share’
Once you’ve selected what you want to share, click the “Share” button at the bottom right. Your screen will now be visible to other participants.
Stop Sharing
When you’re finished, simply click the “Stop Share” button at the top of your screen to stop sharing your screen.
Now you know how to share screen on Zoom effectively! This feature makes it easy to collaborate and present in any meeting.
