Google Duo has rolled out the screen sharing feature for all its users. It will allow users to share their screen with others to browse photos or plan activities together during video calls.

The feature’s arrival was first reported in September after Google had tweeted about it. However, Google had deleted the tweet later.

As reported by Engadget, Sharing your screen is as simple as tapping on the overflow button at the bottom menu in the middle of a call and choosing Screen Share. If you’re the one sharing, you’ll see a warning about potentially exposing sensitive information on your display.

You won’t see the other person on the screen when sharing starts, and the only indication that you’re still on a call and that the feature is active is an icon on your status bar or a notification that says “Ongoing screen sharing.”
