Overview

Zoom screen sharing allows you to share the desktop, window, application, or audio/video. If audio is an important part of your shared content, you can also send the computer's audio (in mono or stereo) to the remote attendees when sharing, providing a more professional and immersive sharing experience.

  1. Start or join a Zoom meeting. 
  2. Click on Share Screen  on the meeting toolbar.
  3. Select the program or desktop you wish to share.
