WhatsApp screen share is a feature that allows you to share your screen with other people during a WhatsApp video call.
This can be a great way to collaborate on projects, provide technical support, or just show someone something on your screen.
According to the WABetaInfo, WhatsApp is rolling out a new update for its native Windows app through the official beta channel on the Microsoft Store. The update brings the app’s version number to 2.2322.1.0.
Beta testers who install the latest update may be able to experiment with a new feature when placing video calls: a screen-sharing option. This feature was previously released to a small group of users after installing the WhatsApp beta for the Android 2.23.11.19 update.
