"Whether you want to share memories from your camera roll, shop together online, co-browse social media, and more -- screen sharing makes it easy to stay connected and close with your loved ones, even when you're physically apart," Nora Micheva, Product Manager, Messenger, said in a blog post.

In addition to screen sharing on mobile and web, screen sharing is also available in Messenger Rooms with up to 16 people on web and desktop.

"We will soon add the ability to control who can share their screen in Rooms and expand the number of people you can share your screen with up to 50 within Messenger Rooms," Micheva said.

As per the tweet by Messenger, with these new controls, Room creators will be able to determine whether to limit the ability to screen share to just themselves or make the feature available to all participants when creating a room and during the call.
