Telegram is one of the most feature-rich instant messaging apps. When you look at its competition (mostly WhatsApp and Signal), Telegram is way ahead of them. That is mainly due to its features like Chat Folders, Secret Chats, Group Polls, etc. One feature Telegram has recently added to its arsenal is the ability to split share the screen with others.
The Screencast feature is available on both mobile and desktop versions of Telegram. With it, you can show your phone or PC screen to up to 1000 people at a time. Read along to learn how to use it.

Step 3: Telegram will ask you to choose from Rear Camera, Front Camera and Phone Screen. Select the Phone screen option and tap the Share Video button. Tap Get Started when prompted.
After a while, you’ll see a message that says ‘You’re sharing your screen’. The participant will now see your screen. You can press the Stop Video button at any time if you don’t want to share the screen anymore.
