How do I share my screen?

Presenters can share their screen to attendees during a training at any point. You can choose to share your entire screen or a single application.

Desktop app or web

Before you begin: Make sure you have allowed GoTo Training access permission as needed.
  1. Start or join a training.
  2. Select Share.
  3. Select the screen or app you want to share and then select Share again.
    Tip: From the preview window, you can choose if you want to include the media sound (browser or Windows desktop only), include the GoTo interface, or optimize for video where applicable before sharing.
  4. To pause or resume your screen, select the arrow by Share and then select Pause sharing or Resume sharing.
  5. To share a different screen, select New by the preview.
  6. To stop screen sharing, select Share again.
What to do next: When you begin screen sharing, a You're sharing your screen tile will appear in the GoTo app which helps you confirm that others are seeing what you want them to see. Your camera filter must be set to Everyone in order to see this tile. If you are not in Presenter mode, you can pin the tile so it is enlarged on your screen. If you are on an iPad, use the Audience View toggle to show/ hide the preview.
