Initiating a screen share from React Native is not currently supported. React Native devices can view screen shares started by participants on other platforms.
View Screen Shares
When a participant shares their screen, the SDK automatically displays it. Listen for screen share events:Pin Screen Share
Pin a participant’s screen share to the main view:Layout Behavior
When a participant starts sharing their screen:- The SDK automatically switches to Sidebar layout
- The screen share is displayed in the main view
- Other participants appear in the sidebar
- The layout returns to the previous state (if it was programmatically set)
