When you take part in a Webex meeting, you can share your screen with the other attendees – anyone can 'take control' of the meeting and share content. Of course, only one person can share at a time, so if you start sharing, Webex will disable the previous presenter automatically.

No matter how you are joined to a Webex meeting – from the Windows or Mac desktop app, a web page, or mobile app – the process to share is almost identical, though the controls vary somewhat once you are sharing.

How to share a screen on Webex

While a meeting is taking place, tap the 'Share' button at the bottom of the screen. Most of the time, you should be able to see the 'Share' symbol (a U with an upward arrow) to the right of the 'Start Video' button. If you don't see it, tap the three-dot menu to see more options and you will find it there.

Choose the kind of content you want to share. The first option should be to share the screen. If that's what you want, tap it. Otherwise, you can browse the other share options, such as a specific app or browser window, or even a whiteboard you can draw and write on. On the mobile app, you'll also have the option to share photos from your camera roll.
