Can I Screen Share Apps From my iPad in a Session?

Frequently Asked Questions


You might be used to utilizing an iPad for in-person services. Thus, it's natural to wonder if the same technology can be used in a tele-session.

First off, there are things you CAN do with Blink Session, or any video conferencing software, but that does not mean we or they necessarily support or advise you do it. We recommend you consider the best way provider your service online, in terms of what will be reliable. Plus, we recommend using tools designed to be used over a live video conference, instead of coming up with complicated ways to use tools you use in person.

Accessing your iPad from your computer is possible with third-party apps like Splash Top, but even Apple does not support this because they design iPads to be used in person on the device it self. Showing your iPad's screen through your computer to a person on a video call is two steps beyond what they were designed for, and requires several things to go right for it to work.

Our goal at Blink Session is for you to not have to rely on screen share and iPad apps. Our "resources" section has many resources you can use right away and you can add your own and share them with your company. You can also play youtube videos and upload your own videos. We have worked with thousands of professionals providing virtual services, and have learned that those who keep it simple, and use with Blink Session has to offer, end up a lot less frustrated.
