Skype is testing a split-screen feature

CAPE TOWN – Microsoft announced in a community post that it will be testing a new screen-sharing feature on Skype. 

Microsoft said: " Your device is no longer a limitation on getting more done with Skype. With the latest Insider build, you can now share your screen on your Android or iOS device during a call. Simply tap on ... and select Share Screen to get started. "

Microsoft suggests Skype users might use this for sharing PowerPoint presentations, “swipes on dating apps,” or for online shopping with friends.

If users are interested in testing the feature, they will have to be a Skype Insider (beta tester) to get access to the mobile screen sharing feature, and you can sign up for beta access here
