Discord will be able to screen share from
iOS and Android devices starting today
Greg Kumparak@grg / 12:00 PM EST•December 16, 2020
 Comment

The super popular chat app Discord  is getting a much-requested

feature starting today: mobile screen sharing.
As the name suggests, mobile screen sharing lets users capture and
broadcast everything on their phone’s display and stream it to a group
of friends. The company tells me they’ve been particularly focused on
making it work well when there’s a lot of onscreen motion, allowing for
things like game streaming or remote YouTube/TikTok viewing parties
with high frame rates and minimal latency.
Streaming your mobile device’s display means sharing everything that
floats across your phone’s screen – so if you don’t want random texts
potentially popping up midstream, you’ll want to turn on your phone’s
Do Not Disturb mode.
Discord first picked up screen sharing abilities in 2017, rolling it out
alongside video chat. Since then, sharing your screen has required a
desktop or laptop; this update brings iOS and Android devices into the
mix. Mobile screen share streams can be broadcast to up to 50 viewers
simultaneously, with no cap on how many users can be screen sharing
in the same channel.
The feature should start rolling out today, but don’t be surprised if you
don’t see it immediately; it’s going out in waves, so some will get it
sooner than others. If the rollout goes as planned, all users with
compatible devices should have it by end of day Thursday.
