Once you’ve selected and clicked on the window you want to share, the Boom Present window will pop open and be accompanied by the Boom Present Remote. You’ll also notice that your self-view tile in your video call will change to “Presenting”.
💡 Note: The word “Presenting” will appear flipped or mirrored to you but everyone else on your call will see it in the correct way.
Next, go to your video conferencing app (Zoom, Meet, etc.)and click the screen share button to start a screen share. Choose the Boom Present window and you are good to go!
Remember to always keep the Boom Present window open. If you minimize the window your screen share will be paused for other participants on the call.
To control the content being shared, switch over to the app or tab that you are sharing.
To end your screen share, first stop sharing in your video conferencing app (Zoom, Meet, etc.) and then click the red stop sharing button in the Boom Present Remote.
