FaceTime Screen Sharing MIA? Here's Why (and How to Fix It!)

Frustrated because you can't share your screen on FaceTime? You're not alone! It's a super handy feature, so let's troubleshoot why it might be acting up.

First, **check compatibility.** Screen sharing requires iOS/iPadOS 15 or later and macOS Monterey or later. Older devices are out of luck. Make sure *everyone* in the call meets this requirement!

Next, **internet connection is key!** A weak or unstable Wi-Fi or cellular connection can prevent screen sharing from working correctly. Try switching to a stronger network or moving closer to your router.

Also, **restrictions might be in place**. Head to Settings > Screen Time > Content & Privacy Restrictions. Make sure Screen Recording isn't disabled. This could block FaceTime screen sharing.

Finally, **a simple restart can work wonders.** Restart both your iPhone/iPad and the devices of the other participants in the call.

Still no luck? Double-check that FaceTime is enabled in Settings, and consider updating your device to the latest software version. Hopefully, one of these tips will get you back to sharing your screen in no time!
