Give remote control to another participant

While screen sharing, you can give remote control to another participant who is in the meeting. If the participant is on iOS or Android, they can remote control your screen using their mobile device.

  1. While screen sharing, click Remote Control and select the participant you want to give control to.
    The participant will be notified they can control your screen and can click anywhere on the shared screen to start control.

  2. (Optional) Click Remote Control and select Share Clipboard to allow the participant with remote control to also copy text from your shared screen.

  3. To regain control, click anywhere on your screen. The other user can still restart remote control by clicking on their screen.

  4. Tip: You can also click Remote Control again and select Stop Remote Control to regain control and not allow the other participant to start remote control again.
