Strange Screen Sharing App was running in the background

Strange Screen Sharing app seems to be running in the background while facebook was being used.

Suddenly I doubled click the Home button on my iPhone 6 Plus, I noticed a blank transparent screen running and it is labeled as Screen Sharing along with facebook app. I have downloaded photo from the internet for someone was talking about the same incident and the app icon is the same one I’ve seen on my iphone and I attached it for reference. I have never even seen this app before can someone please explain?

Same thing happen in my phone. There is no FaceTime installed in my iPhone. Is this spyware or virus or hacked? Plz inform me.

Has anyone figured this out yet? My phone still does it and I reset it and wiped it cleaning and by clean I mean I literally lost half of all my contacts and photos because I decided to open a new Apple ID, I thought maybe it would have been a virus from my existing email since I’ve had it for so long and it could have had a virus or something, but it still it keeps showing the sharing thing at least once a day

I’ve updated my phone every time an update has been available and when I download an app and it asks for permission to track my data I always select that it shouldn’t .

Please Apple address this situation if you haven’t addressed it yet.
