Share from device to active meeting

When in a meeting, I sometimes need to share a screen or photo from my phone or tablet. In order to do so, I have to manually look up and type the meeting ID and password, even though I am in a meeting and my phone shows the banner (to transfer) in the app. 

It would be very helpful to be able to just share from my phone to an active meeting, without having to switch devices or manually type all of the information in.

Screen share allows you to share your phone or tablet.

Go to screen share > advanced tab and select iphone/ipad via airplay.

You can also use a USB connection to share the device.

You can also save the launch link in a note to make joining to the meeting easier.

If this works please click accept as a solution.

I know how to use the screen sharing. I was making a suggestion to make it significantly easier to do the screen share from a mobile device. The mobile app already knows I'm in a meeting and offers a nice large icon to switch devices. I think it would be easy to offer us the option to share my iPhone screen to the active meeting WITHOUT making me switch devices or go through several other steps. It's not the end of the world, but it disrupts the meeting to go through all of these steps (especially if you're giving a presentation). 

 

The most intuitive thing to do would be to just press the big blue button and start sharing to the active meeting. Simple, seamless, intuitive. Even someone that is technologically challenged should be able to figure that out.
