Q: Screen sharing with iPad and Desktop
Hi, I am on the verge of buying top tier for the app. One use case is I will use my screen share my iPad application (connected to my iMac) while I’m on the Mac desktop. Zoom have this screen share feature called “iPhone/iPad via cable”. May I know can GB do this?

Sep 23, 2024A: Hey Lexz, yes I have seen people achieving that by using SideCart. Hop onboard. Cheers.
Hey Richard, I’m sorry I don’t understand what’s a SideCart?

Hey Lexz, it's actually Sidecar. You can check the instructions here https://support.apple.com/guide/mac-help/use-your-ipad-as-a-second-display-mchlf3c6f7ae/mac
Hi Richard, I tried - failed. First I was launching GB from my iMac, while my iPad is connected via SideCar. BUT the thing that I wish to share is an special App in my iPad, as such it lives in another world, not in the Continuity App in iPad.
Next, I tried to launch GB from iPad, but screen sharing doesn't work with an prompt.
So both situation I'm unable to do so, really wish to use GB, help?

This is the video where it shows how Zoom can share screens of iOS devices, so share any app in iPad is possible via Zoom.

Hey Lexz, thank you for sharing that. I will try to play with that next week to see if I can find an alternative. One option could be using or Reflector or AirServer. Regarding share screen from the iPad, mobile browsers currently do not support the getDisplayMedia API, which is the API that enables screen sharing. If you have some time next week maybe we could meet and you help me with some tests
Hi Richard, thanks for recommending, Reflector works well. Not the other.

Appreciate your help figuring this out. I added to our Knowledge Base with a special thanks to you https://knowledgebase.gobrunch.com/integrating-gobrunch-with-different-apps/how-to-share-your-ipad-screen-in-gobrunch-using-reflector-on-a-mac
You work fast Richard, and I've hop on the GB family, cant wait to see this app improve further!
