Troubleshooting Google Duo Screen Share Problems on iPhone

Share This:

Google Duo is one of the most popular video calling and messaging applications. The app is availabe on both Android and iOS devices, allowing users to quickly connect with family and friends. One of its best features is the ability to share your screen in a one-to-one call. However, many users have reported that the Google Duo screen share option does not show up on their iPhone.

This issue can be caused by a variety of factors, such as network connection problems, outdated software, or incorrect settings. Fortunately, there are some steps you can take to troubleshoot this issue and get your screen sharing back up and running.

First, make sure that both you and the other person in the call have an active internet connection with enough bandwidth for video calling. If you’re having trouble connecting or staying connected during calls, try restarting your router or switching to another Wi-Fi network. Additionally, double check that both parties are using compatible versions of Google Duo: if one person has an outdated version, they won’t be able to use the screen sharing feature.

If the problem still persists after checking these two things, you’ll want to make sure that Screen Sharing is enabled in Settings. To do this on an iPhone: open Settings > FaceTime > Screen Sharing; then toggle it on (it should be green). If it’s already enabled but still not working properly then try disabling it and re-enabling it again after a few minutes.

Finally, if all else fails then you may need to delete and reinstall the Google Duo app from your device (if possible). This will reset all settings back to default which shuld help fix any underlying issues that may be causing your screen sharing issues.

We hope this article has helped shed some light on why your Google Duo screen share isn’t showing up on your iPhone. Thanks for reading!
