I just wish I could dive into my mother's iPad and see the screen. Even a share screen button inside of FaceTime would be enough. But no... we've got to install some other app and open control center and face east and repeat the ancient incantation of "Holy one, give me the power bestowed upon only Apple Support employees..."

If on iOS 14 or earlier, jailbreaking allows VNC to work. Ofc a non tech person using a jailbroken device likely wouldn’t work so well since they are all only semi-tethered. Fortunately, if on iOS 15.1 or later, FT allows screen sharing as sibling has also said.

In iOS 15 and macOS Monterey, you can screen share inside of FaceTime.

  I finally got to try this... it's not very good. Voice quality takes a noticeable dive when screen sharing starts, the frame rate is very poor, and the image gets stuck a lot. Better than nothing, but still pretty bad.

  Oh wow. This is something like 10 years late. Thanks!
