The problem

Video calls were built for faces — not paper.

They're made for one presenter sharing a screen while everyone else watches. But real learning happens on paper — and if you don't own a tablet, your working has nowhere to go.

Tutors without a tablet can't actually teach online.

Students can't show where they're stuck, so help is slow.

Study groups can't work through problems together.

Screen-sharing in Teams & Zoom is one-way — one presenter, everyone else watching.

And most people simply don't own a tablet or stylus.

So people resort to snapping photos and explaining them after the fact.

The solution

Make handwritten work visible online.

DeskView turns the phone in your pocket into a desk camera pointed at your page — so your working shows up live in the call, the right way up, big enough to read.

How it works

Set up once. Then 30 seconds a session.

Both downloads — DeskView and OBS — install on your laptop. Your phone never downloads anything; it only scans a code. We walk you through every click (about 5 minutes, once).

Why it's different

From watching to working together.

A normal video call

  • One person presents
  • Everyone else mostly watches
  • Handwritten work is hard to share
  • Collaboration feels slow and one-way

With DeskView

  • Everyone can contribute
  • Everyone can show their working
  • Discussions become interactive
  • Collaboration happens in parallel
Who it's for

If you can write it, you can share it.

FAQ

Good questions, quick answers.

Microsoft Teams, Zoom, Google Meet, Discord — anything that lets you pick a camera. DeskView simply appears in the camera list.

No — both DeskView and OBS are installed on your laptop, never your phone. Your phone simply scans the code your laptop shows and taps "Allow". No app, no account on the phone.

All four. Any phone paired with a Mac or Windows laptop, in any combination.

OBS is a free, widely-trusted app that lets DeskView show up in your call's camera list. You set it up just once — we guide you through every click — then you never open it again. DeskView handles the rest.

Everything DeskView does today, plus every update during beta — and your R79/month is locked in even after the price rises to R109 at launch.

Yes, it's month-to-month — cancel whenever you like.

Bring paper into the call

If you can write it on paper, you should be able to share it online.
