sharing IPad screens with others

My friend is not fluent or comfortable about doing some internet related tasks on her IPad and has asked if I can help. Is screen sharing available at this time and what is the process?

iPad Pro, iPadOS 17

Take a look here:

This of course will presume that she has an iPad recent enough to be running iPadOS 15 or later and has upgraded appropriately.

iOS/iPadOS has no facility for remote control or remote management of the device. 


The best that you can likely achieve is to use FaceTime (or other communication platform) - and literally “talk-though” a problem; if you have similar hardware, and the same version of iPadOS installed, you should be able to work through a problem step-by-step.


When using FaceTime - and both devices are using iOS/iPadOS 15.1 or later - you can quite literally share and see whatever is on screen:
