Getting started

Use ScreenSharePRO in a web browser

View or control a computer, or share your own screen, from Chrome, Edge or Firefox without installing anything - and what the browser cannot do.

The web app at /app works in a modern browser - useful on a computer where you cannot install anything. Sign in with your ScreenSharePRO account first; the web app needs one.

View or control a computer

  1. Open the web app and sign in, then choose View a screen.
  2. Enter the computer's 10-digit ID (or a 6-digit session code) and its password. Optionally type the name the other person will see.
  3. Connect. You can control the computer's keyboard and mouse (if its owner allows it), change the picture quality, go fullscreen and record to a .webm file.

Share your screen from a browser

Choose Share my screen and then Share Screen: your browser asks which screen or window to share. Give the person the session ID or code and the password shown. Sharing from a browser is always view-only: viewers cannot control your computer.

Note: The browser connects directly, without a relay, so on some strict networks it may not connect where the desktop app does. If that happens, use the desktop app.
