DXVK Tips and Troubleshooting: Launching The Sims 3 with DXVK

A big thank you to @heldhram for additional information from his recent DXVK/Reshade tutorial! ◀ Depending on how you launch the game to play may affect how DXVK is working.

During my usage and testing of DXVK, I noticed substantial varying of committed and working memory usage and fps rates while monitoring my game with Resource Monitor, especially when launching the game with CCMagic or S3MO compared to launching from TS3W.exe/TS3.exe.

It seems DXVK doesn't work properly - or even at all - when the game is launched with CCM/S3MO instead of TS3W.exe/TS3.exe. I don't know if this is also the case using other launchers from EA/Steam/LD and misc launchers, but it might explain why some players using DXVK don't see any improvement using it.

DXVK injects itself into the game exe, so perhaps using launchers bypasses the injection. From extensive testing, I'm inclined to think this is the case.

Someone recently asked me how do we know DXVK is really working. A very good question! lol. I thought as long as the cache showed up in the bin folder it was working, but that was no guarantee it was injected every single time at startup. Until I saw Heldhram's excellent guide to using DXVK with Reshade DX9, I relied on my gaming instincts and dodgy eyesight to determine if it was. 🤭

Using the environment variable Heldhram referred to in his guide, a DXVK Hud is added to the upper left hand corner of your game screen to show it's injected and working, showing the DXVK version, the graphics card version and driver and fps.

This led me to look further into this and was happy to see that you could add an additional line to the DXVK config file to show this and other relevant information on the HUD such as DXVK version, fps, memory usage, gpu driver and more. So if you want to make sure that DXVK is actually injected, on the config file, add the info starting with:

dxvk.hud =

After '=', add what you want to see. So 'version' (without quotes) shows the DXVK version. dxvk.hud = version

You could just add the fps by adding 'fps' instead of 'version' if you want.

The DXVK Github page lists all the information you could add to the HUD. It accepts a comma-separated list for multiple options:

devinfo: Displays the name of the GPU and the driver version.

fps: Shows the current frame rate.

frametimes: Shows a frame time graph.

submissions: Shows the number of command buffers submitted per frame.

drawcalls: Shows the number of draw calls and render passes per frame.

pipelines: Shows the total number of graphics and compute pipelines.

descriptors: Shows the number of descriptor pools and descriptor sets.

memory: Shows the amount of device memory allocated and used.

allocations: Shows detailed memory chunk suballocation info.

gpuload: Shows estimated GPU load. May be inaccurate.

version: Shows DXVK version.

api: Shows the D3D feature level used by the application.

cs: Shows worker thread statistics.

compiler: Shows shader compiler activity

samplers: Shows the current number of sampler pairs used [D3D9 Only]

ffshaders: Shows the current number of shaders generated from fixed function state [D3D9 Only]

swvp: Shows whether or not the device is running in software vertex processing mode [D3D9 Only]

scale=x: Scales the HUD by a factor of x (e.g. 1.5)

opacity=y: Adjusts the HUD opacity by a factor of y (e.g. 0.5, 1.0 being fully opaque).

Additionally, DXVK_HUD=1 has the same effect as DXVK_HUD=devinfo,fps, and DXVK_HUD=full enables all available HUD elements.

desiree-uk notes: The site is for the latest version of DXVK, so it shows the line typed as 'DXVK_HUD=devinfo,fps' with underscore and no spaces, but this didn't work for me. If it also doesn't work for you, try it in lowercase like this: dxvk.hud = version Make sure there is a space before and after the '=' If adding multiple HUD options, seperate them by a comma such as: dxvk.hud = fps,memory,api,version

The page also shows some other useful information regarding DXVK and it's cache file, it's worth a read. (https://github.com/doitsujin/dxvk)

My config file previously showed the DXVK version but I changed it to only show fps. Whatever it shows, it's telling you DXVK is working! DXVK version:

DXVK FPS:

The HUD is quite noticeable, but it's not too obstructive if you keep the info small. It's only when you enable the full HUD using this line: dxvk.hud = full you'll see it takes up practically half the screen! 😄 Whatever is shown, you can still interact with the screen and sims queue.

So while testing this out I noticed that the HUD wasn't showing up on the screen when launching the game via CCM and S3MO but would always show when clicking TS3W.exe. The results were consistent, with DXVK showing that it was running via TS3W.exe, the commited memory was low and steady, the fps didn't drop and there was no lag or stuttereing. I could spend longer in CAS and in game altogether, longer in my older larger save games and the RAM didn't spike as much when saving the game. Launching via CCM/S3MO, the results were sporadic, very high RAM spikes, stuttering and fps rates jumping up and down. There wasn't much difference from DXVK not being installed at all in my opinion.

You can test this out yourself, first with whatever launcher you use to start your game and then without it, clicking TS3.exe or TS3W.exe, making sure the game is running as admin. See if the HUD shows up or not and keep an eye on the memory usage with Resource Monitor running and you'll see the difference. You can delete the line from the config if you really can't stand the sight of it, but you can be sure DXVK is working when you launch the game straight from it's exe and you see smooth, steady memory usage as you play. Give it a try and add in the comments if it works for you or not and which launcher you use! 😊 Other DXVK information:

The top fig tree fertilizer provides a complete blend of macro and micronutrients. Look for one with a balanced formulation with nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium (NPK). Slow-release fertilizer with an NPK ratio of 10-10-10 or 8-8-8 encourages strong, healthy growth.

As a result, it not only increases fruit formation but fortifies roots. The exact requirements for your fig tree will vary based on its age, soil conditions, and where you live. Younger trees do best with nitrogen sources to promote rapid establishment.

On the other hand, mature trees thrive with a more balanced ratio of nutrients. Fertilize in early spring and repeat in late summer. This guarantees your tree will get a steady supply of nutrients throughout the growing season.

Coming up in the next section, we’ll look at the best timing and methods for fertilizing for optimal results.

Why Fertilize Fig Trees?

Overall, fertilizing fig trees is a critical step in helping your fig tree thrive and produce delicious fruits. It provides the nutrients needed for the fig tree’s overall vigor. Moreover, it improves soil structure and microbial activity and helps to avoid issues like nutrient leaching and pest attacks.

A healthy, properly fertilized fig tree is not only more vigorous, it produces a bigger and tastier harvest.

Nutrient Needs of Fig Trees

Like most popular backyard trees, fig trees are happiest when they are consistently getting a balanced level of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. Nitrogen increases the development of foliage and stems. Phosphorus encourages healthy roots and colourful blooms, while potassium improves the quality of fruit and overall hardiness.

Trace minerals like magnesium, calcium, and zinc are just as important in enhancing tree vitality and vigor. Keeping an eye on these levels year-round will make sure your tree is receiving what it needs, particularly during those key growing periods. For instance, adding nitrogen in early spring stimulates vegetative growth, but potassium in late summer aids the ripening of fruit.

Impact on Fruit Production

The proper fertilization program has a direct impact on the yield and quality of figs produced. Nutrients such as phosphorus and potassium play a key role in flower development and fruit set, resulting in increased yield. Proper fig tree fertilization results in thicker skin and sweeter figs.

Balanced feeding improves the taste and texture of the fruit. Healthy, vigorous trees will be more productive and will maintain productivity even under less-than-optimal conditions.

Soil Health and Fertilizers

Fertilizers create better soil fertility and soil structure by adding micronutrients and macronutrients and promoting soil microbes. Organic choices such as compost or manure both fertilize the fig tree and enhance the soil, fostering lasting health and abundance.

Nurturing healthy soil leads to strong root systems, the key to tree stability and nutrient absorption.

What is the Best Fertilizer for Fig Trees?

Fig trees will flourish when they are well-nourished, and knowing which is the best fertilizer for fig trees means knowing what makes these special trees tick. Nutrient balance, fertilizer type, and application methods are all factors that contribute to ensuring healthy growth and abundant fruiting.

Here, we discuss must-know factors to find the best fertilizer for fig trees.

1. Understand N-P-K Ratios

The nitrogen-phosphorus-potassium ratio is arguably the most important aspect you should consider when selecting a fertilizer. Fertilizers with a balanced N-P-K ratio, such as 10-10-10, will encourage constant growth as well as fruiting.

For example, increased nitrogen encourages leafy growth in young trees, and potassium promotes fruit quality. Understanding ratios between products is what guarantees your fig tree the precise nutrients it needs.

2. Choose Balanced Fertilizer Options

Organic fertilizers that combine the primary nutrients and secondary trace minerals work best. Products such as Holly-tone, which is a slow-release product, are great for maintaining long-term health.

Fertilizers specifically formulated for fruiting trees usually incorporate essential micronutrients that boost yield and overall tree health.

3. Consider Organic Fertilizers

Organic options improve soil health organically. Ingredients such as composted manure and bone meal help to increase nutrient availability.

Organic fertilizers deliver long-term results by promoting a healthy and vibrant growing ecosystem.

4. Explore Synthetic Fertilizer Choices

Synthetic fertilizers provide nutrients fast and direct. Products such as Florikan provide controlled-release, safe formulas that last well beyond the traditional fertilizer up to nine months, perfect for busy gardeners.

If you do use these, use them very sparingly to reduce their negative environmental effects.

5. Test Your Soil First

A soil test reveals deficiencies and pH levels, guiding targeted fertilization with specific fertilizers to ensure optimal growth for fruit trees and avoid excess fertilizer.

ECG Lead Positioning: Complete Guide to 3-, 5- and 12-Lead Electrode Placement

ECG lead positioning is a crucial aspect of accurate heart monitoring, essential for diagnosing various cardiac conditions. Proper ECG electrode placement ensures that the heart's electrical activity is captured accurately, helping healthcare providers interpret the results effectively. As many as 50% of ICU ECGs have misplacements in V1/V2, highlighting the significant error rate in chest lead placement and the importance of accurately counting intercostal spaces. Whether you're using a 3-lead, 5-lead, or 12-lead configuration, understanding the correct placement of each electrode is vital for reliable data. 

In this guide, we will learn about the essential steps involved in ECG electrode placement, with a special focus on precordial lead placement and its importance in diagnosing issues like MI mimics and other abnormalities. Additionally, we’ll go in-depth into the ECG troubleshooting tips to resolve common challenges during electrode application. Accurate lead positioning can be the difference between a precise diagnosis and a misleading result, so it is essential to get it right every time.

What Is an ECG and Why Proper Lead Placement Matters

An ECG records the heart's electrical activity. It is a vital tool for diagnosing arrhythmias, heart attacks, and other cardiovascular issues. Proper lead placement is crucial for accurate results, as misplacement can lead to incorrect interpretations, ultimately affecting diagnosis. For example, improper positioning of the limb leads or precordial electrodes can distort the heart's electrical signals. 

Following AHA ECG guidelines is essential to ensure precision in placement, such as using intercostal space landmarks and understanding Lewis lead placement or the Fontaine lead technique for optimal readings. Statistics show that 0.4%–4% of ECGs experience limb lead reversals, which can significantly impact diagnostic accuracy (Peberdy MA, Ornato JP, Acad Emerg Med 1994). This emphasizes double-checking limb electrode placement to avoid diagnostic errors and improve patient outcomes.

Types of ECG Configurations

Understanding the different ECG configurations and their clinical applications is crucial for obtaining accurate diagnostic results. The 3-lead, 5-lead, and 12-lead systems each serve specific roles in cardiac monitoring, and the appropriate lead placement can provide critical insights into heart function. Let’s learn about the different systems, focusing on their unique placement requirements and the clinical situations where they are most effective.

3-Electrode System

The 3-lead ECG placement is one of the most basic systems, typically used for continuous cardiac monitoring, such as in ambulatory patients or during transport. In this configuration, the electrodes are placed on the right arm, the left arm, and the left leg (RA, LA, LL). The three leads derived from these electrodes—Lead I, II, and III—are bipolar, capturing the heart's electrical activity from three angles. This system is particularly useful in emergency settings and is often found in telemetry units.

5-Electrode (Telemetry) System

In the 5-lead ECG system, the placement of five ECG electrodes is improved with additional electrodes for more comprehensive monitoring, especially in telemetry and critical care settings. The standard color coding used by the AHA helps prevent errors in placement. The electrodes are placed on the right arm, the left arm, left leg, and right leg (RA, LA, LL, and RL) for limb leads, while the additional (V) chest lead options provide more detailed data on the heart's electrical signals. This system offers better heart rhythm detection and is commonly used for real-time monitoring of patients in hospitals or emergency departments.

12-Lead ECG Basics

The placement of 12-lead ECG is the most comprehensive and widely used system, providing detailed information about the heart's electrical activity. In this configuration, there are 10 electrodes: 4 limb electrodes (RA, LA, LL, RL) and six precordial electrodes (V1-V6) placed on the chest. The 12 leads derived from these electrodes offer an in-depth look at the heart from various angles, helping to identify conditions like myocardial infarctions (MI), arrhythmias, and other cardiac abnormalities. This system is the standard for diagnosing multiple cardiac conditions and is commonly used in hospitals and clinical settings.

Standard 12-Lead Electrode Placement

Proper electrode placement is crucial for accurate and consistent readings. This standardized procedure ensures the measurement of electrical activity from multiple angles, offering valuable insights into heart health. The following guidelines outline the appropriate positioning of limb electrodes and precordial leads to ensure accurate 12-lead ECG placement.

Limb Electrodes (RA, LA, RL, LL)

The limb electrodes are essential for establishing the reference points necessary for interpreting the heart's electrical activity. 

These electrodes are typically placed on the arms and legs, with the Right Arm (RA), Left Arm (LA), Right Leg (RL), and Left Leg (LL) positioned in specific anatomical locations. 

The ground lead, usually, Right Leg (RL), stabilizes the ECG signal by reducing interference. 

It is essential to avoid limb lead reversal, as improper placement can misinterpret the heart's electrical activity. 

Additionally, torso placed electrodes versus distal placement helps ensure accurate readings from the body's extremities to the heart's core.

Precordial Leads V1-V6

The precordial leads get placed on the chest, providing a clear view of the heart's electrical activity in the horizontal plane. 

Each lead (V1 through V6) is positioned on the chest at precise locations, including intercostal spaces, the sternal borders, and mid-clavicular and mid-axillary lines. 

V1 is positioned at the fourth intercostal space, right of the sternum, while V6 is placed at the fifth intercostal space, along the mid-axillary line. 

Proper placement of 12-lead ECG electrodes across these anatomical landmarks ensures a comprehensive view of the heart’s function. 

Additionally, accurate 12-lead ECG placement is crucial for detecting abnormal patterns or conditions that may not be visible in standard two- or three-lead ECGs.

Common Placement Errors and How to Avoid Them 

Accurate electrode placement is essential for a reliable ECG reading. Misplacement can distort the results, leading to misdiagnosis or incorrect interpretation. The following are common placement errors and tips on how to avoid them.

Limb Lead Reversals

One of the most frequent placement errors is limb lead reversal. This happens when the right arm (RA) and left arm (LA) or right leg (RL) and left leg (LL) are swapped. Such reversals can lead to incorrect limb leads and affect the overall ECG waveform, causing inaccurate representations of the heart's electrical activity. To avoid limb lead reversal, always double-check the positioning of the electrodes on the patient's limbs.

V1/V2 Electrodes Placed Too High

Another standard error occurs when the V1 and V2 electrodes are placed too high on the chest. These leads should be placed in the fourth intercostal space, at the right and left sternal borders, respectively. When positioned too high, they fail to capture the correct electrical signals from the heart's ventricles, leading to an inaccurate representation of the anterior heart wall. To avoid this, always ensure that V1 and V2 are placed at the correct anatomical landmarks.

V4-V6 Misleveling

Misleveling of leads V4 through V6 is another issue affecting ECG morphology. V4 should be placed at the fifth intercostal space along the midclavicular line, while V5 and V6 are placed along the anterior axillary and mid-axillary lines. If these leads are misaligned, it can distort the interpretation of the heart's electrical activity, especially in the lateral chest leads. Proper anatomical placement and alignment are key to avoiding this mistake.

Special ECG Configurations and Advanced Leads

Standard 12-lead ECG configurations may not provide enough detail in specific clinical situations, especially for detecting conditions like right ventricular or posterior myocardial infarction (MI). Special ECG configurations and advanced lead placements offer upgraded views of the heart's electrical activity, allowing for more accurate diagnoses in challenging cases. These advanced configurations, including right-sided ECG, posterior leads, and specialized leads like the Lewis and Fontaine leads, are crucial tools for clinicians.

Right-Sided ECG (V3R-V6R)

A right-sided ECG is beneficial in diagnosing right ventricular infarction (RV infarction). In this configuration, additional precordial leads, V3R through V6R, are placed on the right side of the chest to provide a view of the right heart's electrical activity. These leads mirror the standard precordial leads but are placed over the right chest, allowing for better assessment of the right ventricle. The right-sided configuration can help detect RV infarctions that may not be apparent in the standard 12-lead ECG. Proper placement of these leads ensures accurate detection of correct heart abnormalities, essential for timely intervention and treatment.

Posterior Leads (V7-V9)

Posterior leads (V7-V9) are placed along the left axillary, scapular, and paraspinal lines to provide a clear view of the posterior wall of the heart. This configuration is critical for diagnosing posterior myocardial infarction (MI), a condition often missed with standard ECG placements. By positioning these leads in the posterior chest, clinicians can better observe electrical activity from the back of the heart. Early detection of posterior MI using these leads can significantly improve patient outcomes. Correct placement of the posterior leads is essential for obtaining accurate readings that will guide treatment decisions.

Lewis Lead

The Lewis lead configuration amplifies atrial activity, making it particularly useful in cases of atrial flutter or wide-complex tachycardia. This lead system places electrodes on the chest to improve the visibility of atrial electrical signals that might otherwise be masked by more prominent ventricular activity. The Lewis lead configuration helps clinicians distinguish between atrial and ventricular arrhythmias by focusing on the atrial waveforms. The proper Lewis lead placement can aid in diagnosing and managing arrhythmias more effectively, allowing for better patient care.

Fontaine Leads

Fontaine leads are a specialized configuration of bipolar precordial leads used primarily to identify epsilon waves and atrial potentials. These leads are placed in specific locations across the chest to provide a clearer view of the electrical signals originating in the atria and the heart's epicardial surface. Fontaine lead placement is particularly useful in diagnosing arrhythmias and conditions like arrhythmogenic right ventricular cardiomyopathy (ARVC), where abnormal electrical activity in the heart muscle can be identified. This advanced lead system provides valuable insights into the heart's electrical activity, enabling more precise diagnoses and effective treatment for patients with various cardiac conditions.

Patient Variations and Practical Tips

When performing an ECG, it’s essential to consider the patient's unique characteristics and anatomical variations. Proper electrode placement can be more challenging in specific populations, such as females, pediatric patients, and obese patients. Adjusting the approach to these variations ensures accurate ECG readings, which is critical for effective diagnosis and treatment. It's also important to ensure patient comfort during the procedure, as this can affect the reading quality and the patient's experience.

Female Patients

In female patients, breast tissue can interfere with the correct placement of precordial leads, particularly V3-V6. One common technique to address this is breast displacement, where the breast is gently moved aside to allow for the proper placement of the electrodes. 

If displacement is not possible or uncomfortable, under-breast placement of leads (just below the breast) can provide accurate readings without causing discomfort. Ensuring the electrodes are securely placed while avoiding pressure on the breast is essential to maintaining both comfort and the integrity of the ECG recording.

Pediatric Patients

Pediatric patients, especially infants and young children, present unique challenges due to their smaller chest size. When placing electrodes on children, it is essential to adjust intercostal landmarks to account for their shorter torsos. For instance, the fourth intercostal space may need to be lower or higher than usual, as per the child’s age and size. 

The placement of limb leads might require modifications to ensure the electrodes make proper contact with the skin, as pediatric skin can be more sensitive. Taking extra care to position the leads accurately in a smaller chest ensures the ECG captures precise electrical activity for accurate diagnosis.

Obese Patients

Obese patients may present challenges locating the standard anatomical landmarks due to increased chest wall thickness and body fat. In such cases, palpating landmarks carefully is crucial to ensure accurate electrode placement. 

Additional stabilization methods, such as securing the electrodes with tape or adhesive pads, can help prevent the leads from shifting during the procedure. In some cases, slight modifications in electrode placement may be necessary to achieve the best signal quality, such as placing the leads slightly higher or lower than typical locations. Ensuring secure electrode attachment helps in obtaining a precise and reliable ECG reading.

Best Practices and Artifact Reduction

To ensure accurate and reliable ECG readings, following best practices for electrode placement, skin preparation, and cable management is crucial. Proper attention to these factors can significantly reduce common artifacts and improve the overall quality of the ECG recording.

Skin Preparation

Skin preparation is essential for reducing impedance and improving electrode contact. To achieve this, gently clean the skin using alcohol wipes or a skin-prep solution to remove oils, dirt, or other residues that could hinder electrical conductivity. In patients with excessive body hair, shaving the area where electrodes will be placed may be necessary to make a clean and secure connection. Proper skin prep ensures that the electrodes maintain good contact, which helps to obtain clearer ECG signals without distortion.

Cable Management

Proper cable management is critical in minimizing interference and reducing motion artifacts during an ECG. Cables should be neatly arranged and secured to prevent tangling or pulling, which can cause movement-related disruptions in the signal. Using cable clips or adhesive pads to keep cables in place can reduce the risk of unwanted artifacts. Careful cable management helps maintain a consistent ECG signal throughout the recording, especially during lengthy procedures or when the patient moves.

Motion Artifact Minimization

Motion artifacts are common when patients are not still during the ECG procedure. Instruct patients to remain as still as possible to minimize motion interference and avoid talking or moving. If the patient is restless or anxious, consider using calming techniques to promote relaxation. In some cases, securing the patient’s position with comfortable restraints or padding can help reduce involuntary movement, ensuring more accurate results. Additionally, using high-quality electrodes susceptible to motion can help minimize these artifacts.

Wrapping up

Accurate ECG placement and artifact reduction are crucial to get reliable results and make informed decisions in patient care. By adhering to best practices such as proper skin preparation, cable management, and minimizing motion artifacts, healthcare professionals can ensure optimal ECG readings.

How To Share Screen On Zoom On Phone

How to Share Screen on Zoom on Phone ?

In today’s fast-paced digital world, virtual meetings and presentations have become normal. Whether you’re working remotely, attending a class, or catching up with friends and family, Zoom is one of the most reliable platforms for video conferencing. While most people are familiar with using Zoom on a computer, many don’t realize that the mobile version is just as powerful — especially when it comes to screen sharing. If you’ve ever wondered how to share screen on Zoom on phone, this blog will walk you through everything you need to know.

Why Share Your Screen on Zoom ?

Screen sharing can be incredibly useful. Here are some common scenarios where it comes in handy

Business meetings: Presenting a PowerPoint, spreadsheet, or application.

Education: Teachers can show notes, diagrams, or tutorials to students.

Tech support: Easily show someone your phone screen for troubleshooting.

Collaboration: Work together on projects and brainstorm visually.

Now let’s dive into the actual steps of how to share screen on Zoom on phone.

Steps Before You Start

Before jumping in, make sure you meet the following requirements:

You have the Zoom app installed on your phone (available on iOS and Android).

You are signed in to your Zoom account.

Your Zoom version is up to date.

You have a stable internet connection.

The host of the meeting has enabled screen sharing.

Now that you're ready, let’s explore the step-by-step guide.

Step-by-Step Guide: How to Share Screen on Zoom on Phone

Step 1: Join or Start a Zoom Meeting

To begin, open the Zoom app on your mobile device. You can either:

Join a meeting by entering the Meeting ID and passcode.

Start a meeting if you’re the host.

Once you're inside the meeting, you’ll see several icons at the bottom or top of your screen, depending on your device.

Step 2: Tap the “Share” Button

On both iOS and Android, look for a button labeled “Share” or “Share Content” — usually in the bottom toolbar.

Tap on this button, and a menu will appear with multiple options.

Step 3: Choose “Screen”

From the list of options (which may include “Photos,” “Documents,” “Web URL,” etc.), select “Screen.”

At this point, your phone may ask you to grant permission to Zoom to record or mirror your screen. This is completely safe and is only used for broadcasting your screen to other participants.

Step 4: Start Broadcast (iOS) or Start Now (Android)

Depending on your operating system, the next step will differ slightly:

On iOS (iPhone/iPad), tap “Start Broadcast”. A three-second countdown will begin, and then your screen will be live.

On Android, tap “Start Now” when the system warning pops up.

Once you confirm, Zoom will start sharing your phone screen in real-time with everyone in the meeting.

Tips While Sharing Your Screen on Phone

Now that you know how to share screen on Zoom on phone, here are a few additional tips to enhance the experience:

1. Enable Do Not Disturb

This prevents notifications from popping up while you’re sharing your screen, which protects your privacy and avoids distractions.

2. Keep Your Battery Charged

Screen sharing consumes more power than usual. Ensure your phone is charged or plugged in during long sessions.

3. Switch Between Apps Carefully

While your screen is being shared, anything visible on your phone will be shown to others. Be mindful while switching between apps or tabs.

4. Stop Sharing When Done

To stop sharing, simply return to the Zoom app and tap “Stop Share.” This will immediately end the screen broadcast and return you to the video meeting.

Common Issues and How to Fix Them

1. Can’t Find the Share Screen Option

Make sure you're using the latest version of Zoom and that the meeting host has enabled screen sharing for participants.

2. Lag or Delays

This is often due to a weak internet connection. Try switching to Wi-Fi if you're on mobile data.

3. Zoom Doesn’t Have Screen Recording Permissions

Go to your phone settings and enable permissions for Zoom under “Screen Recording” or “Display Over Other Apps.”

Final Thoughts

Learning how to Share Screen on Zoom on Phone is a game-changer for mobile users. Whether you’re in a business meeting, a virtual classroom, or a family catch-up, being able to visually share your screen enhances communication and collaboration. It’s quick, easy, and powerful once you know the steps.

Next time you’re in a Zoom meeting on your phone, try using screen share. With just a few taps, you can deliver presentations, solve problems, or simply explain things better. Technology is all about making life easier — and  Zoom’s screen sharing feature does just that.
