Click Stop sharing
On the join page, Stop sharing stays in reach while you share, even after you scroll.
Anslation Remote
Stop sharing your screen, in one click.
You can end a screen share whenever you like. Here is where the stop control is in each browser, what stopping does to the session, and how to check that nothing is still shared.
In short
How do I stop sharing my screen?
Click Stop sharing on the join page, or use the browser’s own control: the Stop sharing button on the bar Chrome and Edge show, the Stop Sharing control on Firefox’s indicator, or the sharing icon in Safari’s address field. Closing the tab stops it too. The picture stops at once; the chat stays open until you leave the session.
Stop a share in three steps.
Or use the browser’s control
Chrome and Edge show a bar with Stop sharing, Firefox a sharing indicator, Safari an icon in its address field.
Leave when you are done
Leave takes you out of the session. Each code works once, so joining again needs a new one.
Make sure nothing is still shared.
- Look for the browser’s signWhile a share runs, the browser shows it: a bar in Chrome and Edge, an indicator in Firefox, an icon in Safari. When the sign is gone, the browser has stopped capturing.
- The join page installs nothingClosing the tab ends everything the join page started. An app a caller had you install is different: closing the tab does not stop it, so close and remove the app.

Stopping questions, answered.
Does stopping the share end the session?
No. Your screen stops at once, and the chat stays open so you can keep talking or share again if your agent asks. Choose Leave to step out of the session; your support team closes the session itself.
Can I share again after I stop?
Yes, while you are still in the session: click Share my screen and pick what to share. After you leave or close the tab, joining again needs a new code, because each code works once.
Can the agent still see my screen after I stop?
No new picture leaves your computer once the browser stops capturing, and Anslation Remote keeps no video of what was shared. If the agent saved a screenshot or a local recording while you shared, it stays on their own computer, and the session’s activity log notes it.
Screen sharing kaise band kare?
Click Stop sharing on the join page or on the bar your browser shows, or close the tab. The picture stops at once.
