Hello iPhone10xrscreensharing,


We have a great support article that might help with this. Please take a look at it here: Share your screen in FaceTime on your iPhone or iPad - Apple Support. Follow this guidance:


"Share your screen

      1. Start a FaceTime call.
      2. Tap the Share Content button .
      3. Tap Share My Screen .


Everyone can see what's on your screen until you stop sharing, but they can't control anything on your device. If you get any notifications while sharing your screen, others won't be able to see them.

When you're sharing your screen, others won't be able to see content that requires a subscription, a free trial, or a purchase or rental to view. With SharePlay, you can watch video togetherlisten to music together, or work out together by sharing content through supported apps."


Please note this part of the article as well: "FaceTime and some FaceTime features might not be available in all countries or regions."



We hope this helps. Let us know if we can assist with anything else at all. Take care.
