View My Screen is the free companion to Remote Screen Viewer — a two-app solution for real-time screen sharing between people who know each other, such as an adult child helping a parent, or a friend helping a friend. HOW IT WORKS: Tap "Share My Screen." A 6-digit code appears on your screen and is automatically read aloud. Read it to your helper over the phone. They enter that code in Remote Screen Viewer and can instantly see your screen. ONE BUTTON. THAT'S IT. No accounts, no setup, no tech skills required. If you can tap a button, you can use this app. YOUR HELPER CAN SEE — BUT NOT TOUCH: This app is view-only. Your helper sees your screen exactly as it appears but cannot tap, type, swipe, or control anything. You stay in control at all times. NO RECORDING: Sessions are never recorded or stored. The moment you stop sharing, your screen is private again. NO AUDIO IN THE APP: View My Screen does not use your microphone. Talk to your helper on a regular phone call at the same time. FREE FOREVER: View My Screen is completely free to download and use. No trial. No subscription. No payment ever required. YOUR HELPER NEEDS THE COMPANION APP: Remote Screen Viewer ($2.99) — available separately on the App Store. That is the app your helper uses to see your screen.
