"Can you see my screen?" -- I hear this question multiple times per day. It's becoming annoying. Perhaps because 100% of the time, the answer is Yes.

Can we have an automatic voice message that says, "We can now see your screen, <username>!" when someone starts a screen share, and it's not a blank screen, please?

Welcome to the Zoom Community, @agornostal.

Interesting idea. What if you sent a Chat message to your presenter (type it in while they’re struggling to get Screen Share started!) and when their share shows up, hit Enter to send the chat.

Many people don’t know about the mini-window to confirm screen sharing.

See this Zoom Support article for details:

Ah, so Zoom is actually telling the user the screen is being shared. Thanks for bringing my attention to that!

Evidently, people ignore that pop-up preview.

What I'm proposing is different and I think more helpful than the preview.
