Share your screen
Share your whole screen or a single window in a Glow Meetings meeting from a browser, the desktop apps, or your phone and tablet.
Screen sharing is end-to-end encrypted, like the rest of the meeting.
Start sharing#
- Select Share in the meeting controls. On a computer you can also press S.
- Choose what others will see — your Entire screen or a single Window.
- Confirm the choice.
While you share, Glow Meetings shows "You're sharing your screen — everything on it is visible to the meeting." To finish, select Stop sharing.
Share computer sound#
To include the sound playing on your computer, such as a video, turn on Share computer sound before you start. Chrome and Edge can include sound. In Safari and Firefox, sharing is video only.
The sound setting is fixed once sharing starts. To change it, stop sharing and start again. If no sound was captured, Glow Meetings tells you the share is video only.
On the desktop apps#
The Windows and macOS apps show their own picker with your screens and windows. On macOS, you may need to allow Glow Meetings to record your screen in System Settings → Privacy & Security the first time.
On iPhone and iPad#
Select Share, then confirm in the system screen-broadcast prompt. A banner shows while you're sharing, with a button to stop.
On Android#
Select Share, then allow screen capture when Android asks. You can stop sharing from the banner in the meeting or from the Glow Meetings notification.
If Share is greyed out#
If the host turned off your mic and camera, or made you an attendee, you can't share your screen. Ask the host to select Allow mic & camera for you.
