IOS 15.6 screenshare on facetime

Hello,

I have noticed that I am able to screenshare with some people, but not others while on FaceTime. The others that I have difficulty sharing my screen with have the same update (IOS 15.6) as I do. When we call the screen share option is greyed out, how can this be fixed? Thank you for your assistance.

iPad Pro, iPadOS 15

Screenshare window doesn't work over FaceTime Hey everyone, I'm having an issues window sharing over FaceTime. When I'm on a FaceTime call, I click the top green box which allows me to choose whether I want to screenshare the entire screen or screenshare a specific window. Usually the window I want to share will highlight purple, and in the middle it'll say "Share this window". However, recently it hasn't been doing that. All it's been doing is highlighting the window purple and not allowing me to share the screen even if I click it. I was wondering if there is a fix to this. I've already tried restarting the device and have allowed screensharing in my privacy settings, but maybe I'm missing something. Any advice would be appreciated. Thank you!

Hi there jnicosia98,

We understand that when you try to share your screen using FaceTime, that at times it is grayed out. We'd be happy to help.

Is the option greyed out or is the screen black or black space when you share?

Do you now if the other recipients have Screen Time enabled that may prohibit screen share?

Let us know and we can go from there.
