What Apps Support SharePlay?

SharePlay is Apple’s way of making virtual interactions more fun as it users to share content from various apps directly onto a FaceTime call on any of their devices. The shared content can be anything from a song, movie, TV show, podcast, or any other kind of content that’s streamable and is supported by Apple.

If you’re wondering what apps are supported by Apple’s SharePlay feature, this post should answer all your queries.

What apps can you share content to?

Apple’s SharePlay feature can be exclusively used on the FaceTime app on all compatible devices. You can use the feature to share content that’s playing on your iPhone with other people on FaceTime.

Although SharePlay supports a wide range of apps and media that you can stream/play from, you can only share it on FaceTime. This is because, SharePlay is a native feature built to work with FaceTime only, so you won’t be able to use it with other video-calling or conferencing apps.

What apps can you share content from?

There are a bunch of Apple-developed apps as well as apps from third-party developers that support sharing content via SharePlay.

We “may” see any of these apps or others that support sharing content using SharePlay sometime in the future when the feature gains popularity. In addition to iPhones, you will also be able to use SharePlay on iPads, MacBooks, iMacs, and Apple TVs and supported apps on all of these platforms should be able to take advantage of this sharing feature.

That’s all there is to know about what apps support SharePlay on iPhone.
