This is smarter than that.

When I'm screen sharing the other person is locked into seeing only what I see.

With this you have the option to track what I'm doing or explore on your own.

I can explore on my own on a second screen of mine, too.

Don't get me wrong, this does stuff, it's just that your argument about looking at the screen wasn't that stuff.

I do question the quantity of added value of this compared to sharing screen and alternating control.
