Hi. In a similar vein to https://community.zoom.com/t5/Meetings/Using-two-devices-tablet-and-computer-laptop/m-p/33379, I am struggling to find a way to effectively host/present in a meeting with two devices where the second (tablet/phone) contains shared content that I want to annotate.
Umm... what?
I often present PowerPoint slides. I'd like to annotate those slides or whatever I'm sharing using a stylus. My laptop has a touch screen but it's incredibly impractical to effectively annotate by sticking my arm out in front of me and fingerpainting like a kindergarten kid while the world looks at my giant fingers on-camera. All of that is bad, and I never share my laptop (primary) screen anyway. I want to use a stylus to annotate content shared to a secondary monitor. You know, like a grown-up.
Our team's technical training classes can last for weeks and annotations are precise and extensive. Sharing the laptop monitor and reaching to it to annotate (giving it the finger?) is simply not an option. We need a way to share an external device that contains/shares the PowerPoint (or other) content on which we can use a stylus. (I have no idea if this makes sense. Easy to envision, hard to write. Sorry.)
At a recent meeting hosted on Teams, a host did some magic and shared his tablet which he used, writing-pad-style, to do his presentation. He still appeared as one attendee, the tablet "belonged" to his single login, and he was able to draw in OneNote incredibly effectively. I was floored (and jealous) as this is something I've been seeking to do in Zoom for a long time.
Here's the workflow I'm imagining:

What's the answer to this??

The answer appears to be switching to Teams.

Hi,
I am able to do this with Powerpoint on my IOS device while tethered to my laptop.
I used the wired method described in the support document.
Using my mouse and Zoom's annotation tool
Using my IOS device and my finger on my iOS screen (I don't have a Pencil stylus near by)
It seems like you should be able to do something similar
To share your entire screen, including any application on your Android device:
in the meeting controls.

Hi @Frank_TB. As far as I can tell, that might be iOS only. I haven't looked extensively but was not able to find an Android equivalent. I will be very happy to be wrong. 🙂

Hi,
You are probably correct. I have seen people log in from two devices as long as they are not the same kind of device. A tablet and a PC would be acceptable.
So, NemanMTX (PC) and NemanMTX (Tablet) would be acceptable from a Zoom perspective.
If you have an Android annotation app you could just switch presenters when it's time to annotate things. It would require some testing, but I don't have any Android devices.
Regards

Thanks. My experience has been if I join from a second device on the same account, I must switch to the other device. I could join from a second account on the other device, but that has its own complications. Part of what I'm looking for is elegance, sharing multiple forms of content, etc. which is much harder to do when you're constantly switching sharing between different users.
