Screen Share

About Screen Share Tool

The Screen Share Tool is a free online screen sharing solution that lets you share your screen instantly with anyone through a simple link. Your screen reaches your viewers over encrypted connections and is never recorded or stored. Show a bug to a developer, walk a client through a design, or present slides to up to 20 viewers, with nothing to install.

This screen sharing software works in desktop Chrome, Edge, Firefox or Opera, and viewers can watch from any device, including phones and tablets. It supports up to 1080p at 30 to 60 FPS, with system audio and microphone audio.

Privacy and security are at the core of our online screen sharing tool. Every connection is encrypted, and your screen is never recorded or stored. The host gets a unique room link that viewers use to join, and the session ends the moment you stop sharing. The name you type is only shown to the people in your session.

Frequently Asked Questions

Tips & Best Practices

• Close sensitive tabs: Before sharing your entire screen, close any tabs or applications with private information you do not want viewers to see.
• Use a stable connection: For the best quality, ensure both host and viewers are on a reliable internet connection. Wired connections outperform Wi-Fi.
• Share specific windows: Instead of sharing your entire screen, share a specific application window to keep the focus on relevant content.
• Enable system audio: When presenting videos, demos with sound, or tutorials, enable system audio sharing so viewers can hear your computer's output.
• Mute when not speaking: If using microphone communication, mute yourself when not talking to reduce background noise for viewers.
• Test before important sessions: Run a quick test share with a colleague before client presentations or large meetings to verify everything works smoothly.
