How to use the SharePlay function on Apple smartphones?
To use the SharePlay feature available in the iOS 15.1 operating system, users can make video calls on FaceTime. You also need to make sure that the contacts you are communicating with are also already using iOS 15.1.
Once the call is connected, you can instantly switch to the Apple Music or Apple TV app to enjoy the content you play with the friends you contact.
If the Apple Music or Apple TV app is already open, you can play the content you want to play and the SharePlay option will appear on your smartphone screen.
Meanwhile, the person receiving your video call should receive a SharePlay request to play it on two devices, so that they can feel the sensation of watching a movie or listening to music together.
By performing the steps above, you can enjoy music and video content in the Apple app together with your friends to accompany activities in times of pandemic.
Besides the SharePlay feature, another feature introduced in iOS 15.1 is the Screen Share feature. Users can select the Share my screen option located on the right to show their device screen to others, when making a FaceTime video call.
