Facebook Messenger now lets you share other open apps, browser tabs, photos, videos, and more during your video calls. And better yet, you don’t have to wait for it to roll out to your favorite platform: the new screen sharing feature is available now on Android, iOS, and desktop versions of Messenger, Messenger Rooms, Workplace Rooms, and any other Facebook app where you can have a video call.

How to Share Your Screen on Facebook Messenger (iOS, Android, & Web)

Of course, the feature works a little differently depending on your device. Desktop users can choose to share specific applications, browser windows, or their entire desktop view, while mobile devices broadcast whatever is currently open on their screens.

The number of participants is limited based on which service you use. With regular Messenger conversations, you can broadcast your screen to up to eight other people in a single conversation, while Messenger Rooms currently allows 16 people in screen-sharing sessions. Facebook plans to increase that limit from 16 to 50 in the coming weeks and will add additional controls to Messenger Rooms, allowing the conversation creator to set limits on who can share their screen.

For now, all participants in the conversation can share their screen at any time.
