Expo Setup

Configure screen share for Android and iOS in your Expo app by adding the enableScreenshare and appleTeamId properties to the SDK plugin in app.json:

{
 "plugins": [
      [
        "@stream-io/video-react-native-sdk",
        {
          "enableScreenshare": true,
          "appleTeamId": <ADD-YOUR-APPLE-TEAM-ID>, // example: "EHV7XZLAHA"
          // .. rest
        }
      ],
  ]
}

iOS

  • The appleTeamId field is used for signing the new extension created for screen share.
  • The above configuration in the plugin will generate a new screen sharing extension named as "broadcast" and adds relevant information to your iOS app target as well.

Android

The plugin adds a foreground service and the permission android.permission.FOREGROUND_SERVICE_MEDIA_PROJECTION. When uploading the app to the Play Store, declare these permissions in the Play Console and explain their usage, including a link to a video demonstrating the service. This is a one-time requirement.
