ShowMe Screen turns your device into a wireless display receiver — for supported devices over Screen Mirroring, and for any desktop web browser over the internet. No companion app, no display driver, nothing to install on the sender. MIRROR FROM COMPATIBLE DEVICES Open the app, tap Start Receiver, then choose your device from Control Center > Screen Mirroring. Your sender's screen streams directly to your device over Wi‑Fi. SHARE FROM ANY BROWSER Open the secure share link in a web browser on any desktop computer and click Share — your screen streams straight to ShowMe Screen over WebRTC. It connects peer‑to‑peer on the same Wi‑Fi and now works across different networks too, falling back to a secure relay when needed. No account, no extension, no install. FEATURES • Zero setup on the sender — no helper app, no driver • Peer‑to‑peer streaming — video goes straight to your device, encrypted in transit • Works across networks — share from another room or building, not just the same Wi‑Fi • Live connection status and latency, with a direct/relayed indicator • Full‑screen viewing — portrait and landscape, tap to hide controls • Pinch to zoom — up to 5× with pan to inspect any detail • A/V sync — hardware‑decoded video with synchronized audio • Picture in Picture — float the stream while using other apps • Trusted device approval — approve once, reconnect instantly REQUIREMENTS • Screen Mirroring needs both devices on the same Wi‑Fi • Browser sharing works on the same network or over the internet • Local Network permission is used for device discovery • Performance depends on network quality and device capability ShowMe Screen is the fastest way to get any screen — your compatible devices or desktop web browsers — onto your device, with no cables and no software on the other side.
