For when a screen shot just won\u2019t cut it, Slack\u2019s paid users can now <\/a>share live video of their screens during video calls. The addition of the feature comes a slow two years after Slack bought Screenhero<\/a>, a startup that offered enterprise screenshare, in a cash-and-stock deal for its tech and six employees. The feature will roll out on Slack\u2019s latest Mac and Windows apps over the next few days.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

To use Slack screensharing, fire up a video call then hit the screenshare button. You can select your preferred screen if you\u2019re using several, your webcam will deactivate, and Slack notifications won\u2019t appear to avoid exposing any private info. Viewers will see all of your shared screen including your cursor so you can easily point things out.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Slack\u2019s native screensharing feature will compete with several integrations with third-party products<\/a> it already offered, including Skype, BlueJeans, Appear.in, Google Hangouts, and Zoom. They\u2019ll all continue to work.<\/p>\n

The launch\u00a0is an example of how Slack is happy to offer an ecosystem of apps, but isn\u2019t afraid to overshadow them by building its own native versions. That could give pause to some developers working on seemingly intuitive extensions of Slack\u2019s core functionality.<\/p>\n
