A Mac meeting app cannot share the screen

Check the app's screen-recording permission in macOS privacy settings. Permission to use the camera does not automatically grant screen access.

By RJ Computers

Quick answer

Check the app's screen-recording permission in macOS privacy settings. Permission to use the camera does not automatically grant screen access.

Understand the issue

Confirm the exact application or browser running the meeting. A browser-based meeting and its desktop app can require separate permissions. Use a harmless window for testing so the audience does not see private notifications or documents.

Step-by-step checks

  1. Open Privacy and Security in System Settings.
  2. Review Screen and System Audio Recording for the intended app.
  3. Allow the needed access, follow any restart prompt and test sharing.
