[2025] How to Share Your Screen on Facebook Live on Mobile & PC

One of the new features of Facebook is Facebook live screen share that allow you to go live on Facebook. This is an essential feature especially for business people and students to share their screens during presentations or gaming sharing. This article is to help users know how to share their screen on Facebook live.

Mobile Facebook has the live feature that allows users to live stream videos anytime and anywhere, whether from work, home or while on vacation. It has made it possible for users to directly talk with their friends or show them something that is happening in real-time. However, users cannot share their screens or video, or pictures on their phones. Users can only use their cameras to show things happening in real-time on video calls. To share their screens, they need to use other applications.

Step 1. Open your Facebook app or website.

Step 2. Click "Live" at the top of the screen. Or tap on "What’s on your mind" then scroll down and click "Live video" to start a live stream.

Step 3. Customize your live video settings (optional). Select your audience at the top of your screen, click the downward arrow to the right of "To" and choose who can see your audience. Either public or just friends or any groups.

Step 5. Tap the "Live" button to start broadcasting. Interact with your audience through comments and reactions.

Step 6. If you want to finish the live. Tap "Finish" or "End Live Video" to conclude the live session. You can choose to save or delete the video.
